Schilke X3 Silver plated trumpet 1973

Description: From the private collection of Sound Investments USA LLCSchilke X3 Silver Plated Trumpet 1973 SN# 6292The bell is exactly 5” in diameterThe silver plating was totally polished and cleaned. The valves all move free and fast and it plays great according to a player who tested for us. All tuning valves move freely and all were cleaned and oiled.With only a few DINGS . All the doings are in the pipe above the bell and that is the only area that has any dings. There is a scratch/ding in the bell shown in the pictures. I try to show the dings with about 5 dings noticeable and a few very tiny dings shown in the pics as well. Other than the bell scratch/ding shown the rest is free of dings or issues at all.The case is new and is a hard formed lower end gig case with straps.This one was played as you can see from some of the silver-plating wear, but well cared for. We are the second owner of this and we got this from a professional player. It is ready to play. The valves all move freely and fast. This specs list is from the current Schilke web site and I don’t know if it holds exactly true for this 1973 model X3X3 SchilkeLooks like the new ones are $3800 +The X3 plays big and broad. This model allows the player to achieve a rich yet brilliant sound with maximum projection. This model’s balanced design allows an “even feel” throughout the range of the instrument. The X3 is popular with commercial and orchestral players alike.Actual bell measured is 5” exactly in diameterAlso, from the Schilke web site:Custom Series Bb Trumpets (X3)Versatile trumpets with a natural brillianceThe Schilke Custom Series Bb Trumpets (also known as the B & X Series) were designed by Renold O.
