From the Brad Goode Collection
Here is an AMAZING playing WW-II era Martin Handcraft Standard. This horn is a beast.
Martin Handraft military standard Gold wash #2 dual bore
144348 Gold trim
Not original top buttons
Brad played this horn on the album Chicago Red:
unusually heavy for the time period. Here's how Brad describes the horn:
“A dark Martin that plays in tune”
It's totally true. It has a wonderfully complex sound shape. Very even. Great scale!
Some plating loss in spots as you can see (like on the pipe especially) and the valves don't look great but still have very good compression overall.
Here's a Low-fi clip of Trent Playing it:
