This classic cornet with a traditional Shepherd’s crook gives a distinctive look combined with a circular extension C-Eb.  The original mouthpiece is also shown.  Some say that the ‘shepherd’s crook short model bell design shown here, provides a darker sound that is popular with British brass bands.
