B&S rotary trumpet information

[rv_ph]

Dear Mr. Weller,

I own this B&S rotary trumpet in Bb. It has a light and resonant sound. I think it looks somewhat like modern 3005 trumpet model. The serial number is 233440, and it has B&S logo stamped on a bell with a star and R(registration) mark.
I would like to know more about this particular trumpet and in which year it was manufactured.

Thank you and best wishes,
Ruslan Varlamov

Hello Mr. Varlamov,

your trumpet was made in 1986. The model has now been around for 55 years (minimum), always referred to as B & S No. 3005.

In 1970 B&S writes: "Artist quality. The concert model for the discriminating player".


Best regards
