Bocote trumpet I am finishing up this weekend. Bocote makes a great trumpet, very lively tone to my ears. This is one of my original shapes.

Dang Seth, I wasn't aware that Bocote was one of the problem woods, guess any of them can at some point in time. I have had some issues with Cocobolo, but can manage if I am very careful.
