What type of trumpet did Louis Armstrong use?

Q: Like was it a Bb or something else?

A: If you go to the SELMER PARIS website it will say.

He played on a K-MODIFIED TRUMPET "Louis Armstrong model"

This was a make by the Selmer Paris corporation in Paris France.
They make more of the better woodwinds around(saxophones, clarinets). They also produce BACH trumpets.

Hope this helped :)
