Don't turn many of my older/original styles these days, nor do I turn many Bloodwood horns. I actually built 2 Bloodwood trumpets back-to-back this week, great trumpet wood IMHO.

Yes it does look great with your original design!

Meleagris gallopavo

Bloodwood certainly should make a great trumpet.  Very nice Greg!

Those are gorgeous Greg. I do t think your original style gets enough credit.

Nice Greg. Bloodwood is beautiful, it's just one of those woods you have to get in hand to appreciate. The chatoyancy can be incredible.

Bloodwood also makes an awesome box call lid ... especially bloodwood over a cedar box ...
