custom Monette 993 for sale

This is a Custom Monette Copy of a 993 built for me by Jim Becker at Osmun Music...I asked for the darkest, roundest, smoothest, sound I could get out of a trumpet and still sound like a trumpet and this is what he came up with...It has hard nickel plated valves (like getzen but smoother IMHO) It has light weight and heavy valve caps...and a custom reciever (similiar to bach) to lighten the articulation...the horn plays great! He also made a square slide in addition to the ovate slide that crispens up the articulation and brightens the upper register...2 horns in one!!! I used this horn primarily for small group jazz but have played it professionally in virtually all venues, salsa, quintet, big band, tejano, rock groups etc. I am going back to school and have to sell some horns. I payed about 2500 for this horn and can let it go for 1850 including shipping.
