Austin Custom Brass

I recently stopped in at Austin Custom Brass during a long road trip and enjoyed a warm welcome from knowledgeable and thoughtful musicians. With the store’s exceptional inventory of new and vintage trumpets I had the experience of trying many in a relaxed way. I bought an Adams A2 they recently received on consignment and had such confidence in the purchase because of how well the particular horn meets my needs. Meeting Trent Austin and his colleagues was such a pleasure - I look forward to doing business with them again!

I’m a hobbyist trumpeter so I decided to pick up the deal Trent had on one of the ACB doubler’s flugelhorns he had in stock. There was just the tiniest flaw in the finish on the lower bout on the lead pipe. The horn is a joy to play and didn’t break the bank! I had my professional trumpeter friend play it (who owns a very high end flug) commented that the ACB sounded better than his! The big difference is the way the valves feel, but that is at least partly due to the ACB not being 100% free of grease or broken in yet. Very happy with the horn and highly recommend ACB to purchase the horns you need!

I've recently just purchased a Mt Vernon Bach Strad 37 from ACB and I can't be more happy! Now I've purchased from them before, mostly smaller purchases like mouthpieces and valve oil, but buying this awesome instrument from them was a very reassuring experience. Between the updates on how the order was going to the personal video sent demonstrating the horn, I can say that any other horn purchases will be coming from here if possible! It was packaged very well and was delivered quick, but I live just a short distance from the shop that i probably just need to make time to personally check out and visit sometime. Thank you to the whole team that made this investment worth while!

5 stars for customer service - 5 stars for quality products - 5 stars for ACB's dedication The used Austin Custom Brass Sonic flugelhorn I purchased a month ago exceeded my expectations right out of the box. The Sonic is so easy and fun to play and sounds great in all styles of music. My entire range from below the staff to above the staff is accessible and in tune. The MV flugelhorn mouthpiece I purchased with the Sonic was so comfortable that I purchased an MV trumpet mouthpiece in the ACB standard blank. The MV trumpet mouthpiece produces the sound I desire more efficiently with a stronger and centered upper register. I'm happy to support ACB's commitment to quality products and outstanding customer satisfaction.

I bought a BAC Benge trumpet after I saw Trent Austin's awesome video about the horn on YouTube. I live in Dallas so I had to make my purchase online. Josh answered all my questions and was nice enough to take multiple pictures of the horn from different angles and text them to me so that I could decide if I wanted the horn as it was a slightly used horn that they were selling on consignment. They also offer this horn brand new but I got a deal on this one so I decided to go with it. There were a few cosmetic things that bothered me about the horn when I got it but Josh and Chacko from BAC got those things taken care of for me quickly and professionally and Josh even took a whole new round of pictures and texted them to me so that I would know that everything was done properly. It's great to know when you buy something from another state that the people you're buying from stand behind their products and are there to help you if you should have a concern and Josh was extremely patient through the whole process and he helped to expedite everything and I would say that Austin Custom Brass is a true Pro Shop that takes the time and effort to make sure that you are satisfied with your purchase.

This is the second horn purchase I’ve made with ACB, along with countless mute and mouthpiece buys. The people at ACB are so helpful, very courteous and are joy to interact with. This Adams A4LT is a tremendous instrument, and I’m very happy with the purchase. Thank you guys very much for providing such wonderful customer service.
