You should share a pic of that beauty with us! A friend of mine had a Reference 54, that horn was flawless! He ended up selling it for a Mark VI, but if I had the money, I’d totally would have picked up the 54. Nice horn!

I have always wanted to try out a Buescher! How do you like yours?

I have been playing for nearly 20 years now, and could skip through beginning topics, but I’m not going to. The r…[Read more]

Welcome Mike! Sounds like a great setup you have!

Thanks Johnny and Mel! I really appreciate it! I do some recording at home for practice. I would be flattered if you took a listen! Thanks again!
