I have a couple of the "old" Old Guard bugles, built by Lawler.

Most are Bb/F but a couple are Bb/Ab. A few years back, three of us performed "Buglers Holiday" with a concert band using these. The other two players were Dennis Aquilina and Jim McFarland, Garfield and Blue Devils alums, respectively.

Of course, we had to modify the arrangement slightly, and the band trumpeters were amazed. They all wanted to try our horns but none of them could figure out the C scale.
