I have only turned a few Bloodwood trumpets, but they really do make a great horn.

You've been on a roll out in the shop bud! Looks like a good one. Like that red hue with the black mouthpiece a lot
Looking to buy Allen Dunfee scratch boxes.

Thanks, the ferrule is antiqued as well which looks good to my eye.

I have only built a handful of boxes, but always loved using Bloodwood lids, they seemed to have just the right amount of bite and sounded great. Relative to trumpets, Bloodwood creates nice tone and response to my ear.
