Got my first Buice trumpet in the mail this morning!
A Macassar Ebony with a lot of character.
Billy said he found this horn in a drawer unfinished from 2009 and decided to go ahead and complete it. Once I heard it, I couldn't resist. She is all turkey.
Mr. Buice is a true gentleman and it sure was a treat to "talk turkey" with him.

That's a beauty. Thx for sharing.
Another beautiful call from Mr. Billy....
Congrats..... :you_rock:
That is beautiful, not sure if it relates to trumpets like it does guitars, but over the years I have built many acoustic guitars and to my ears Macassar Ebony is the most resonant/musical of the ebonies......stunning to look at too, congrats.
Mighty fine trumpet right there. Congrats...
Excellent. Mr Billy makes awesome trumpets.

Yeah, hunting turkey is already worse than a drug addiction, then you throw these trumpets into the mix and it's like pouring gasoline on a fire.
