Marcus Bonna Cases!

January 30th, 2010

They’ve begun arriving! I have ALL models coming, and some of them are already in stock. If you’re looking for a Marcus Bonna Case – get it HERE before the spring 2010 price increase. Don’t be tricked into getting cheap copies…

The last 3/4 sized Besson Double horns here! (Plus I found one more Hoyer 801)

January 18th, 2010

I’ve worked out a deal with the guys at Besson to purchase some of their discontinued 3/4 sized Double horns at a phenomenal price.
On the USED market these typically go for $1500 and up, and I will be selling them for $1499.00 NEW!
I have only a limited number of these – so please contact me if you’d like one. They are a perfect way for a smaller player to get into the double market, at the price of a SINGLE horn! So… bypass purchasing a single F, and try one of these compensating doubles. The way they play will astound you for a horn of ANY size.

Also – It isn’t listed yet, but I did fine one last Hoyer 801 NEW!

Rare Geyer JUST IN!

January 9th, 2010

Keep on the look out for a Geyer which I’ll be posting any day now. It’s in amazing condition, and has had only one owner.
As soon as I clean it up I’ll let y’all know.

VIENNA HORNS NEW CD IS HERE!

December 22nd, 2009

VHThe new Vienna Horns CD: “Director’s Cut” has just arrived! I have a limited number of these for sale.
If you’ve heard their other recordings you’ll know why this ensemble is one of the best in the world. They do amazing things – and they do them on Vienna Horns!
You’ll notice that I’m experiencing some updates to my website – and that many of the pictures of the items are missing – but they are here in the shop!

Tasteless but fun Gift… – Personalized Pope’s Piss valve oil

November 23rd, 2009

cb36e09bfffc054ef3805ae540d1b73e_image_400x600I know I’ll catch some flack for this one… but I am now offering my high quality Pope’s Piss valve oil in personalized bottles.
Just include a note with the order as to the name you’d like on the bottle… (Rather than Pope’s Piss – it would be Paul’s Piss.. or whatever name you choose).
It can be a first or last name, or even a pet nickname – you choose.
It’s the same price as my standard Pope’s Piss.
GREAT stocking stuffer, or simple gift!

Back in the saddle

September 19th, 2009

Ok.. The computer problem is history (mostly)! Over the next week you’ll see a plethora of instruments being added.
Also, watch for my upcoming video ‘how to’ series! (Captivating titles such as ‘how to take out your valves’, – ‘How I rebuild valves’… etc. yawn… but I promise they’ll be funny AND informative).
Marcus Bonna cases will be arriving in a couple weeks. I have ALL models on order (just in time for early Christmas shopping).

As usual – if you have a product that you think I need to sell in my shop – let me know about it!
