Awful March 5, 2008 B. Leonard I agree that this is a terrible-quality horn. I'm a trumpet player and band director, and this horn is AWFUL. It's very difficult and restrictive to blow through, and almost impossible to get in tune. The valve action is very sticky and slow. Any horn I've experienced, even from other manufacturers, in this similar price range turns out to be junk. br / br /Do yourself and your music student a favor and invest some money in a better quality instrument from a legitimate music store. If you don't know anything about instruments and are looking to purchase, please consult someone who does!
DO NOT BUY THIS! November 13, 2007 Ronald Walden (Wilmington, DE) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Horrible quality! Each valve had bent springs, and the trumpet is of very low quality. I've been a trumpet player for about twelve years, and have many trumpets. I ordered this as a second trumpet and it's absolutely horrible. If I could give it ZERO stars, I would have. Customer service has yet to respond to my inquiry about returning this. Not even worth $20. Don't order it!
Great for the money. Good sound, good looks! September 12, 2007 EZ shopper (Texas) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This trumpet was a great deal. It came in a good strong carrying case. The finish on the trumpet is good. Looks like a more expensive instrument that what I paid for. The sound is also very good, especially for the price I paid. Overall, we are very satisfied with this purchase.
Horrible Trumpet April 12, 2007 Robert Opgrand (Fargo, ND) 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
This trumpet is of extremely low quality, despite what any other review may say. Most of those reviews are written by non-musicians, likely parents who were looking for a good deal. Granted the instrument is playable, it will seriously constrict the development of a player. This instrument is most likely from china, which in recent years has sent out thousands of low quality instruments at cheap prices. Check out ebay, theres always hundreds of these trumpets under various names such as Laval, Bessler, and Weimer. br / br /Just remember, you get what you pay for. Although even used name-brand student trumpets may cost more, they are of much better quality and can last a lifetime. br / br /Stick to name brands like Bach, Yamaha, Conn, Selmer, King, Kanstul, etc. If you have any doubts, give it a quick search at google.
Don't waste your money December 15, 2006 P. Edmonson 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I gave this item a rating of 1 star only because it was the lowest offered, otherwise it wouln't have even received a star. This item is extremely low quality and one of the valves was bent upon arrival, it stuck, the trumpet was not playable. We took it to a music store only to be informed that it was not repairable... I would say if you are looking for a quality trumpet, keep looking because if you purchase this, you may as well flush your money down the drain.
