R37 features thick tubing for the leadpipe & tuning slide.
Heavy bottom caps further enhance an already solid sound and feel.
This trumpet is heavier and darker sounding than our other models, yet still possesses a rich lyrical quality

Pros:
nice craftsmanship
Cons:
valves
The horn isn't really great above high C but the lower register projects well. Weight is pretty standard but not well balanced from front to back. Blow was consistant but a little stuffy for ME. Tuning was good with the usual adjustments needed on 1&3. Valves were sluggish even after a year of playing on them. This would be a great horn for a high school player. I know I listed some negative things but the horn just wasn't suited for me, so it may be for someone else.

Pros:
Sound, projection
Cons:
Very fine trumpet. Great for lead and jazzcombo.
It has a fine open sound in the high register. If I have to believe the stories there could be some difficulties with the valves, not im my case. Valves concerning my (Hollywood) Caliccio are just fine.
For all of the leadtrumpeters out there: This is the lead trumpet you want to have !!
