Here is Maynard's beautiful gold Monette trumpet.

Maynard loved this horn. He played it on his final tour and used it for his last studio recording "The One and Only". The last time this horn was played was when Maynard played "Taps" for the family cat, just 4 days before he himself passed away. We have kept the mouthpiece with the horn

Maynard Ferguson's gold Holton Superbone serial #TR395

created by Holton Leblanc in the 1970’s that Maynard continued to play to the end of his life.

Maynard Ferguson's gold Holton Superbone serial #503845

This superbone saw a lot of touring, as you can see by the silver duct tape holding the slide together
and the baggie with the valve caps in it. Maynard just forgot to send it for repair and it was found in the
back of the garage with a newspaper inside the case. The headline of the newspaper reads
"Lennon Killer Charged". Maynard's handwriting is on the outside of the case.
