Excellent trumpet, worth at least twice as much
I got this for my daughter. She liked the hexagons, abalone buttons, and bell engraving. She was 11 when we ordered it. I was worried about it being large bore and a single-radius tuning slide for someone so small, but she's always been a strong player. She used to audition for an advanced arts school and was invited to attend the school. Don't worry about the large bore. It responds very well. She fills the room with huge sound when playing. You may not be able to produce a laser blast like on a more standard medium-large bore with square slide, but you can make a tremendous sound. It comes with a 5C that is probably a J Klier, but its branded Thomann. She doesn't use that one. I use it myself for passages that required fast articulation, like the staccato solo in Procession of the Nobles. If you find out where this trumpet is made, you'll be happy about that as well.

Top horn for that money!
This horn is incredibly good due to this price. I play trumpet lots of years and owned over 30 pro horns like Van Laar, Schilke, Stomvi,Selmer, Bachs, Yamahas etc. This horn is free blowin and very easy to play especially in upper register. Sounding even better than student Yamaha horns. Can?t say much about endurance but manufacture quality looks good. There are some good cheap trumpets like Arnolds and sons or Carrol Brass but nothing in this price range. I wouldn?t recoomend this horn to yourger players becouse of large bore. For me it?s great outdoor or backup horn for commercial music.
