Yes Sir I am. My first Trumpet was A King student model Igot when I was around 6. I started Hitting A pretty good Range about 10 with the standard 7c mouthpiece. As I got abit older, I recieved a Meha trumpet ( Can't recall the French Company that made It right off), and later Got a Callet Mouthpiece custom made.
The last Trumpet I had My wife bought for me, It was another student Model, But hey , I got to play It. undortunatly, I played It too hard. The Little Brass Rods Came loose after a few Years of Me Pushing that Horn too hard.
But Yes Sir, I'm very passionate about jazz, and Music.
