Description
Greetings. The H. N. White Kings Museum (privately owned) in conjunction with H. N. White Kings now lists Jazz Legend John Birks "Dizzy Gillespies" personal trumpet on the market for sale. This horn was manufactured exclusively for Dizzy at the Eastlake King factory. The horn is in excellent condition and plays like new. This King Silver Flair is gold plated with clear lacquer. Those of you that studied Dizzy know that his horns were unique in that they were manufactured without slide rings and no water keys. Dizzy owned over 20 Silver Flair custom trumpets during his endorsement of King horns. Dizzy played King Silver Flair trumpets from 1964 until the late 80's when Jon Faddis gave Dizzy a Schilke trumpet. Dizzy, Harry James and other great horn players often donated or gave their horns to charities, museums, and friends. Dizzy gave this horn to his friend Sammy Davis Jr. and had the horn engraved "SAMMY" at the Eastlake King factory by the Master hand engraver Robert Morgan. Included in the purchase of this great horn: certificate of Authenticity, Al Cass Mouthpiece, custom case (new condition) and luggage tag engraved DIZZY GILLESPIE. This horn was last privately played by the Great Jazz trumpeter and Mack Ave. recording artist Sean Jones of the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra. International bidders accepted! No cost domestic shipping. International shipping will be charged at cost. Email questions to : whitewaynews@hnwhitekings.com
