VINTAGE OLD PAN AMERICAN BRASS CORNET TRUMPET SERIAL 254856 FOR PARTS DECORATION Description: You are bidding on one(1) Vintage old Pan American brass cornet/ trumpet. Selling as is. For parts or for musical decoration. One is rudolph wurlitzer the lyric. This is a hard to find 1800's vintage f. Busch bb silver and gold cornet with very low serial number 810.i found it in a local.

I picked up an old Wurlitzer cornet and the valves and slide all move freely and easily, but when I try to play it I can't get any sort of tone. Air is oging through but I just hear my lip buzzing sound out the other end, not a 'cornet' sound. I still have to clean it up, and I'm sure my technique sucks, but I've blown into a trumpet before and atleast gotten a trumpet-like sound, not just some buzzing spit sound. I checked the valves and I believe that they are in right, numbers facing sideways for this particular guy.

Valves do seem to line up when pressing them down and like I said, air seems to be getting through. Any thoughts? It's a really nice cornet, 95% remaining silver plate and really no dents or dings, all polished up she'll be a pretty piece, but not much use if I can't get it to play. In my experience, there are several things that can cause the effect you describe when you try to play. They are: a leak in the water key(s), a leak in a solderjoint somewhere in the tubing, a crack in the tubing, or something lodged in the horn.

If you can find a way to make the bell end airtight (hold against a smooth rubber mat on a flat surface, or devise a plug) and blow hard into the leadpipe you can often run down the leak by the sound of the air escaping. If you cant find any of these there may be something stuck inside the tubing, usually in the area of the first bow back from the bell. In our shop we have rigged a hose from a faucet that fits tightly over where the mouthpiece goes. Putting the horn in a sink and turning the water on full force dislodges stuck materials about 80% of the time.
