I had misread that as "International Strumpet Guild". I thought Prototypn45 was a 14 year old union member of the world's oldest occupation. Either that, or a very fortunate 14 year old boy.

I auctually i learned to play trumpet at the ITG, i know 4 notes! I was taught by a person who plays in the Milwaukee symphony. I was there because I was helping my dad out. The ITG is a gathering of trumpet geeks from all over the world to show off their stuff. This year's ITG was held in Denver, Colorado. I got a Bach Omega the day after I got back from Denver. My dad is going to teach how to customize it. oh and Doc Sevrenson was there.

P.S. I you ever need or want a new mouthpeice check out GR Technologies. Those are the best mouthpeices!!!

Sorry about the doubble post i didn't see it come up the first time.

oh, thanks

I've not seent he bach omegas. Are they an american model?

i just stick to my crappy yamahas (well, they're not that bad, but the price of them is fanatastic...)

i don't know much about the Omega's but i do know that they use a bach stratavaris valve section. Yamaha's aren't the best, but aren't the worst, or at least acording to my dad.
