1952 York Master Trumpet (Modified Feather Touch) & Case
Found at an estate sale.
Serial# 177645 (dates to year of 1952)The mouthpiece is a Blessing 5c.
This trumpet\'s original \"Feather Touch\" valves used tension springs mounted just above the slides.This one was converted to compression springs mounted under the slides, likely becausethe tension spring parts are no longer available.I don\'t know if those new springs are the ideal choice, and would suggest consulting a professional. The valves move smoothly without drag and return quickly with little effort.
I am not a musician, so I cannot vouch for the play-ability of this instrument, and offer no guarantee or warranty.
The rose, brass and silver lacquer shows some wear and scratches.The bell shows signs of having been bent and then straightened but not refinished.There are a few small dents elsewhere as shown in the photos.Some cork seals look in need of replacing.The case has only minor scrapes and the interior is worn but still functional.
Note: The words \"Feather Touch\" are not engraved but I was told the engraved feathers around the bell andthe patent # on the valve tube indicate it is/was, and that the engravings varied.
