Olds Ambassadors, made by F.E. Olds and Sons, are a great student trumpet. However, beware of just any Olds Ambassador. Some serial numbers are more collectible than others, so check out Alan Rouse’s excellent website and his list of olds ambassador serial numbers.

Even if you have found one that is considered desireable, its difficult to make an intelligent purchase without knowing something about trumpets in general, and Olds Ambassadors in particular.

Why buy an unknown used Olds Ambassador when you can buy one that has been reconditioned, worn parts replaced, and its valves polished and aligned?

Check our guarantee! Its among the best in the industry.
