There's a rumor that when Kanstul ran the Olds line that all the horns were of high and consistent quality - even the student models. Supposedly that's SN 300 in the 60's. My stock answer for anybody who comes to me and says 'my kid is in 5th grade and wants to play trumpet - what should I get?' - is an old Olds Ambassador cornet. Note: From 1987 to present, add 50 to the serial number prefix to calculate the year of manufacture. Unfortunately, my guesses were off by several years. If you have a shop card copy for your instrument and/or know its specific date of manufacture, please E-mail me with the information so I can update my list. NY serial number. It is common for people to think their horn is much earlier than.
