In another thread about a vintage trumpet he'd bought with an obscure name. I realized that this would be of interest to many people if there are others unfamiliar with this term. This was a term has been around the music industry for at least 100 years. It still is applicable today. Custom Ios Installer Wii here.

A 'STENCIL' HORN... It is a term applied to designate a horn that was ordered by a music store to be used as a private label instrument for their exclusive sales. It was said that they only 'stenciled' their brand or store's name on the horn (although in fact it was of course engraved on the bell). This meant they did not design or manufacture the horn, simply had it made as a non-competitive 'profit maker' for the store. Today everyone knows the term 'bait and switch.' In those days a music store would lure someone in for, let's say, a Conn 'Wonder' which everyone sold... Then switch 'em to their private lablel instrument which was 'better.'
