Yes, This is the same person who made those great double-cup mouthpieces. This is a very rare trumpet and it has been refurbished. Horn is in really nice shape. It has been professionally cleaned/serviced and ready to go. All slides/valves work great and the horn still has really nice compression. It has had some professional repair work done to it. The middle section of the leadpipe was replaced with a same bore size pipe. The mouthpiece reciever and tuning slide reciever ends of the leadpipe are original. The horn takes more of a French taper type mouthpiece, but it will still work fine with any standard shank trumpet mouthpiece. It just won’t go in as far as on modern day trumpets. I played it with a standard Bach 7C and it played really well. I believe that J. Parduba started out as a horn maker, but when his mouthpieces became more popular he stopped his horn production to focus more on the mouthpieces. Harry Glantz, one of the most famous orchestral players of his time was known to play on a Parduba trumpet.
