A wonderful history behind these fine trumpets.Basically in the tradition of the benge trumpet,these horns are exclusively built by the kanstul music company for M.T.I music.From benge to burbank,or even the chicago class from kanstul,these horns are identical looking.They all have,especially the burbank,incredible sound and brillance.Burbank trumpets are a hidden gem in the trumpet world.Great sound,projection and freeblowing range puts this trumpet in a level easily with schilke,callichio,etc.Ive personally have played burbank trumpets my whole professional career.I have also played many great horns from the other big brands and honestly they have not compared to my 3plus burbank.This horn simply has a sizzle I have yet to find in any other trumpet!I have also had a Bob Reeves valve alignment that even made the horn more responsive and open!If your a lead player like me,do yourself a favor and try the burbank trumpet!With four models to choose from,I sure you will find a great trumpet.The burbank trumpet is really a legend reborn!!Jack Musgrove.(Lead trumpet player for the legendary latin rock group Malo.)

Pros:
Fastest responsiveness
Cons:
Bright sound might not be everyone´s taste
The 3X+ offers a bright sound with less resistance and open high range. Nice lead horn.
The manufacturing quality is quite fine and consistent.
The 3X has more centered sound with more resistance, the 5X has a darker, fuller sound.
I like the playing feel of the lightweight Burbanks a lot.
