Pros:
Responsive, Big sound, Great Intonation
Cons:
Third valve slide could be freer
Best horn I've ever owned (had a few top name pro horns in my day). Projects without trying too hard. Intonation is right on and tone quality is out of this world.

Pros:
Big rich sound. Solid Sterling silver leadpipe and bell!
Cons:
Big bore requires alot of air.
Great Big Deep Rich Sound without a heavy feel.
All White "King Craftsman" instruments are etched on the valve stems for easy basic valve alignments.
The valves are nickel and the slides are nickel plated on the inside for smoother operation.
One of the best quality hand made sterling silver trumpets ever!

Pros:
Takes over as lead. Can play within a section in symph or jazz ensemble, but when you call on it, she is there with "Bells on". I ordered the 1970 super 20 symphonyII, laquered version. Laquer finish protected for 20 years without a visible sign
Cons:
It let me sell it. It comes back as a ghost often to laugh at me to this very day, 20 years later!! Don't buy it if you are ever planning to sell it, it is truly cursed!
All round toughest, lyrical, powerful, accurate horn in the world I'd say!
