Pros:
Looks great, very free blowing, easy high register
Cons:
errmmm... none that i can see yet
I recently bought this trumpet to replace my YTR2335 (that I've had for about ten years). It main uses will be quintet and orchestral work as well as some big band. Because I'm at university I can only afford an intermediate instrument but am absolutley thrilled with it, it plays very well and the upper register is no longer a strain like my old model. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to buy one (although, do look for a good price, some places are selling them for almost $1000).

Pros:
Easy to get tone on, High Register easy. Great valves. Easy to play.
Cons:
It's not supposed to be this good ??
Compared this to Conn V1, Bach 180ML and Schmidt pro today.
I was very suprised that this one beat them all for me.
Sound just short of Bach Strad 180 in richness, but close.
Better valves than any of the above.
Easier to 'get tone' on with minimum breath than any of the above.
Easier to get into the high register, with higher maximum 'unstrained' notes.
I just can't believe this intermediate horn was this good.

Pros:
Great valves, free blowing, Very good finish
Cons:
none
Compared to my Bach M/L model 37, I was surprised to get so much for so little.
The finish is much better, the valves runs smooth and light, and you "can blow it with a kiss".
