This is a J. Michael three-turn signal bugle. It's been used quite a bit and has numerous scratches and dents, but it's been polished clean with compound, and the sound is perfectly fine. The mouthpiece is also quite scratched, but it has been upgraded to a VINCENT BACH 6C for trumpet. If you don't mind the scratches and want to practice hard, how about this for someone who is new to the bugle? The bugle, which has its origins in military signal bugles. This is a three-turn, G-tuned signal bugle that inherits that tradition. The thick and powerful tone unique to G tuning will add color to festivals and fanfares.
