Martybucs Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 OK, I thought the Accord was made by Honda in Marysville, OH. I'm sorry, couldn't resist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornsUp Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Take a valveless Bb bugle. Pull the tuning slide WAY out. You now have an A-chord instrument. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchromik Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 (edited) Accord - Elkhart, INAnyone know anything about that stencil? I have an old Accord student trumpet. I believe it was a student line built before Selmer became Conn-Selmer. Not the worse horn I have ever seen or played, though not great.

G-horns Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 marching horns are carbon copies of blessings That's what I thought! They just look too similar to NOT be a copy or factory "seconds". (Perhaps just a Blessing in disguise?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Perhaps just a Blessing in disguise?) pretty much, i've played both blessing and accord marching baritones and marching french horns, no difference, even the same case!

I don't care if no one else got your play on words, I thought it was splendid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice word play. I've played Blessing Trumpets, specifically the ML1S Bb. It was OK. It was very well made, nice sound and response. It was reasonably priced, had a very nice case. I didn't like the Amado water keys. I needed a new horn and the price was right at the time. Not a true pro horn, but more than adequate.
