Here are some observations I would like to share in regards to some of
the recent postings on the horn list.
First of all, as to the Schmidt mouthpipe being called a a narrow
taper mouthpipe, I think that this is somewhat misleading terminology.

I forgot to include this link in my last posting. It's a later Kruspe
catalogue, I think, that illustrates the horns, but without the model
numbers (with one exception). There are also a couple of additional horn
models shown:

Dawn,
I think that there is another answer: You simply aren't seeing the
music that has the good horn parts. Trust me, there are composers
and arrangers of modern band music who definitely know how to write
good horn parts.

As far as I know, Kruspe horns rarely, if ever, had actual production
serial numbers. What they often had, however, was the design patent
number engraved on the bell below the Kruspe eagle trademark. The design

I would doubt that any horns were made in Germany in 1942 for any purpose:
brass was a critical material. Does anyone know for sure? In fact, I'm still
surprised that horns were made in the US in 1945. My first horn was a King,
brand new, in 1945. It was the Kruspe copy with the upside down change
Richard's description of pre-WW II Kruspe horns matches, for the most part, my
horn. I bought my double Kruspe in 1940. I was told then it was about twenty
years old, so that would mean the horn was built around 1920. As far as I can
see, there is nothing that looks like a typical serial number

That number is presumably a part identification number. On my New

In the USA, it seems that there are several new versions of Kruspe wrap
horns being introduced and gaining in popularity - for example - Holton
Merker, Patterson, Patterson conversion, Atkinson, Osmun conversion, new
Yamaha 668II, and maybe others. Also the new 8D's seem to continue to be
popular
I'm curious why it matters. There are plenty of people who play each
general style - I say play what you like...

The Kruspe vs. Geyer debate will probably continue for many years. In
addition to preference, don't forget that the popular style is very
regional. I play a Merker (very happily), and live near Chicago.
