Attempted turning my first trumpet

[Jrkimbrough]

Much respect to you guys that turn these!  It's not easy! 

I'd say it was a small victory but not a huge success... turned it from a piece of Frogwood

Love the piece of wood, looks better than my 1st attempt....trumpets are a trial & error adventure, keep at it and you will find what you are looking for.

I thought it sounded good. I'd like to hear a little higher front end, but you can definitely run that thing. Can't wait to see what you come up with down the road. Nice call!!!

Agreed!  Next time im gonna try a wood that isn't quite as hard, it was tough on my drill bits.
