With everyone buying froo froo things for our baby on the way I decided to do something a little different just from Dad so I called up Craig Scott (Muddpuppi Calls) and talked with him about making a trumpet for me to commemorate my son that I can pass on to him when the time is right. Here's pics of the final product. Not only does this call look good but it may very well be one of the best sounding trumpets I've ever heard. I would put it up against any trumpet I own. He has new internals for 2013 and in my opinion will be a strong contender in Nashville this year. The trumpet is Bocote with a buffalo horn mouthpiece and I had my son's initials and 2013 engraved on the ferrule.

You'l love it. I have two of Craig's trumpets, one made in 2011 and this one in 2013. The internals in his new trumpets are awesome and are night and day from where he started.

He had me come over and check your trumpet out last week....man to say I'm jealous is an understatement. It's a beauty. Congrats. Also many congrats on your up coming addition to the family. Being a Dad is a special thing.

Thank you. It's going to be tough to pass this one down. I may have to go ahead and have him build me another to reduce the temptation... :TooFunny:

He has more bocote.

Dads always get to break toys in. You know to make sure they work and all.
