Pros: good sound
Cons: somewhat stuffy, especially if you have a large bore 37

i like my horn, its a large bore 37, and i replaced the leadpipe with a 43, as well as took the horn to raw brass... it plays beautifully.

Pros: sounds beautyfull
Cons: it took me more air (bad language because I'm Dutch)

My bach Stradivarius trumpet is great, aspecially this new one. Large boring and, a beautyfull sound. That's the most important thing to me, the sound of an instrument, full and warm..

Pros: lightning fast valves, open up really well in both low and high register, slot easily, 30years old horn with a lot of use, still playing great
Cons: needs to be in shape to play that .462, feels like a much larger bore than it actually is

enjoy

Pros: Great Sound and Response
Cons: It takes awhile to get used to the lack of resistance.

I really like the sound I get on this horn. It feels like my 229/25h C trumpet, which I really like also.

Pros: basic playability and easy to sound in tune
Cons: Everything you would expect from a student horn

I've played many trumpets so far, this is the second worse trumpet I've played (Conn 1B being the worst). In my many years of experience, I believe a Yamaha student model will sound better that this because the yamaha offers at least good sound and quality construction.
