  • My gawd! pooor trumpet! I have been playing about 4 weeks now--and I'd never treat my sweet girl that way! I named her "Lucy" and I'd cry if anybody ever treated her like this! I also play drums--maybe I should have this gal clean my precious Paiste 2002 cymbals--sure to end up with a craked one or 5! I was gritting my teeth to this clip! I treat my horn like she's made of gold--and NEVER drop or bang it! And I have MS! SHEEEESH! This is awful! Alcohol will destroy lacquer ARRRGH!!! Damn!
