- Buescher Serial Number List. Years and Serial Numbers are Approximate. Buescher Trumpet Serial numbers are most often found on the 2nd valve casing - OR if that is buffed off, check on one of the valves themselves! Pull out a valve and look on the section just below the button and stem. In MOST Buecher trumpets in the 1950s and earlier, you can.

- Nov 21, 2013 I have YFB-621 F tuba #100257, so I think that this means that my horn is the 257th example of the little F tuba ever to have been made and it happened to have been made during or after 1988 - and NOT that it was the 257th example made since January of 1988 (excluding all the others made prior to 1988).
The lore is that they are on the second valve casing, as they are on piston tubas, but I see nada.

I also read that they are under the model number, but I don't see one of those, either, and I suspect those were placed at the request of the traditional US importer, through whom I don't believe my instrument passed.Any ideas?
Second question: the lore, which I just researched to answer the above question, sparked by the thread from a day or two ago, also says that the first two or three digits define the year the instrument (or at least the valve body) was made. Was this an old B&M/Nirschl tradition?--I know they supplied piston valves to Hirsbrunner up through the middle 90's. If so, might it apply to my B&M-made York Master? That serial number starts with 66, and 1966 would be completely plausible. Enquiring minds want to know.
