Like Alan said, you can't go wrong with any of the fellows mentioned. I always tell the callmaker to make me what HE likes and I'll be happy. This past year I got an AGE, a Billy McAllister, a Mark Prudhomme and an Ernie Fetters and I seriously love them all. Another guy you must not overlook is Austy Bott. He makes a great adjustable but I like his traditional and his "Coke Bottle" trumpets as well.
