I have heard about the 400 and Aristocrat, etc. I am looking for specifics on what was pro level and what was student level and how to identify them. _________________ Then you shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound.

As near as I can tell, in that era, Buescher didn't make 'student' models. In the late 30s and into the 40s, near as I can tell, there were three main lines of trumpets. Elkhart Buescher Serial Numbers![]() The Aristocrat, the Custom Built, and the 400. There also seemed to be a few other models that were still offered, though they weren't listed in the catalog that I have, and there may have been some overlap in the models. Some of these models didn't have names, though they all had model numbers. For example, I have a model 220, which is a narrow-wrap 'jazz' horn that is clearly from the mid-40s or so, based on serial number. Probably immediately post-war. This trumpet has no name on it except for Buescher. It has heavy valve casings soldered together in much the same fashion as the 400. While the 400 is probably the top of the line from the mid-30s when it was introduced until the early 50s when it was redesigned, the other horns were of equivalent quality, but designed with a different sound in mind. As an aside, the design of the 400 seems to be the least changed in that time period. It remained essentially identical, except in trim and changing the mouthpipe from nickel to brass, throughout that period. ![]() If you're looking at Buescher trumpets and you have one that you're thinking of buying, by all means let us know what it is. But in the era you're talking about, it's my opinion that all Buecher trumpets were professional quality horns. They didn't distinguish. Just that some of them had features that made them cost more.
