    Up for auction is a used, good condition,1965 F.E. Olds Mendez M-10 Trumpet in satin silver finish with bright silver trim.  NO RESERVE.
    This trumpet was won as the 1st place prize by a high school student at a trumpet competition.  We don't know if this was a local store or if it was the F.E. Olds Company that sponsored the event. From what we could find, there were very few Mendez trumpets that were finished with the the satin silver plating.
    Our Service Department removed some bell flare dents, resoldered the second valve cluster brace and greased the slides and the trigger mechanisms.  This trumpet is ready to play but the new owner should give it a complete internal cleaning.
    The nickel plated valves have tight air compression.  However, as shown in the photos, there is some minor plating wear at the top and bottom of the valves.
    The plating on the trumpet is original with the only wear showing is on the water key screw.
