Question I have a Holton Collegiate trumpet 373512. Can you give me any background on it or sites to research? I can't provide a good picture of the bell stamp. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Answer Robert, The horn dates to 1963 and is a good student/intermediate model. It has a medium large bore and plays very full. The Collegiate line started in the late 1920's and continued until Holton just started calling the horn the T602. The vintage ones play much better than the newer ones. Here is a website dedicated to the older Holton horns: http://www.holtonloyalist.com/index.htm
