That's a special piece of bocote. They all look killer, Greg, and I guarantee they're full blown turkey.

There's something about that mac ebony!  Honestly they all look awesome, and since I have two of Greg's trumpets I can pretty much guess they sound awesome.

Thanks everyone....I will say that it is probably harder to find Macassar like the one shown than any of the other blanks. That piece of Macassar was provided to me for this build, wish I had a pile of it.

Very nice Greg! I'm especially a fan of your Osage, but agree with the others that the mac and bocote are something special!

I just received the Bocote and I don't think you could find a better piece of wood. Phenomenal to say the least and the playability can't be any better. Greg's yelpers are one of the best out there!

I just opened the box with the Mac Ebony in it.  To me it's the nicest Mac Ebony I've seen.  She runs beautifully.  I brought my Bois de Rose trumpet from Greg with me to compare them.  To say I'm pleased is an understatement!
