| Player feed back!! |
| Looks like I'll go first!! Being the first guy to create a note on one of these in the factory, I must admit, this horn was awesome even in raw brass!! I've thought about having a horn of this caliber for the last two years, but never in my wildest dreams did I ever expect to get the chance to play one! As you can hear by the wav file attached to the opening page, the American Heritage Field Trumpet is a dream come true! I sat for an hour and a half waiting for my call to sound Taps. The horn still allowed me to play as if I had just warmed up! Crisp, Clean, and Clear. What an awesome tool to honor American Veteran's!!! Thanks to Tom Getzen Dreams do come true!!! Dan Erikson WI State Director for BAA |
Dan, I Love It! It Produces tones of excellence. I'm so proud to own a new Getzen American Heritage Field Trumpet.
Thank you for taking the first step by asking Tom Getzen to create them. Mr Getzen has told me how fun this project has been. Both
Tom Day and Tom Getzen are true American heroes for making sure veterans are honored properly. Lets not forget to also send kudos
to Jari Villanueva and Mark Elrod who were INSTRUMENTAL (ha, ha, pun on the word not intentional) in making this effort a
success. Buglers, you'll be very satisfied with this beautiful horn. I highly recommend it. The price is reasonable and if you don't have
the funds I suggest you seek out local organizations to sponsor you so that you can provide quality sound and apperance during your
honoring of our fallen comrades. Outstanding job BAA and Getzen team! To Honor With Dignity,
Ron Glazer, MD BAA member MSgt, WVANG

| Sir, Received my new Getzen American Heritage Field Trumpet yesterday. It is simply beautiful. Got it just in time to play a small memorial service at the local firemen's monument last night. As a tuba player, I never felt like a real bugler while playing Taps on my used Conn director. That changed last night, I actually felt like a bugler, even if I needed to use the G slide! The precise etching of the bell with the BAA logo serves as a reminder of the mission, as well as a way to open an explanation of the organization to others. Thank you for all your efforts in making this horn possible. It is well worth the cost to have a quality, American made instrument to honor our veterans and our country.

| Mr. Erikson, I placed an order with Getzen on Sept. 4th. Monday afternoon, the 22nd, I received my new field trumpet. I have played trumpet for many years and have worked with veteran's groups and funeral homes since 1989 and have never had a bugle. After joining BAA about a year and a half ago, I began looking in earnest for a good bugle. What I found was junk. I have not been able to locate a buglecraft brand and was just about to order the Amati when I e mailed you reguarding the Getzen. I purchased the M2003 and everything about this far exceeds my expectations. Fit and Finish-excellent. The BAA logo really blew me away (I did not expect it to be stamped/engraved-I thought it might even be just a decal!) Weight and balance-just right! Tone and intonation-again, excellent. The case supplied with the instrument was much better than what I expected. Thanks to you, Jari, Tom Day and to Getzen for delivering such a great product. I have not used it in a public ceremony yet, but look forward to doing so soon. As soon as I get a chance to use it, I will e mail you a photo. Again, thank you for taking time to answer my questions and point me in this direction. Donald Galyean BAA Winston-Salem, NC |
Well, I got mine in (#1006) and it is gorgeous!!! It plays easily and sounds beautiful. Thanks to all who had a hand in getting us some real quality horns, and especially
to Tom Getzen and Co. for stepping up to the plate and delivering. Chas Dickson LA State Director for BAA

| Hey Guy's, It's arrived! It's beautiful! It's going to get played on a mission tomorrow morning for the first time, my 101st since joining BAA! My new M2003S has serial # GE 1002. Call me nuts,but like a kid on Christmas morn I wouldn't sign for it until I unwrapped the box, got it out and played it in Bb (not my normal key, I like G) right in front of a startled UPS driver! It played absolutely PERFECT!! As it turned out, the UPS driver played a bugle years ago in Boy Scouts. I gave him one of my cards and he promised to look on the web site and maybe sign up. Thank you Tom Day, Dano and Tom Getzen. I love you all!!!!!!! Keep the lamp lit! Ross Medos State Director for BAA MI |
