Pros:
Pretty good sound, good valves, good price.
Cons:
Water key popped off during marching performance, not the best trumpet for the price.
I bought this horn Sophmore Year of highschool, and it worked just fine then. After a season of marching and concert, my school offered me a Bach Strad or an LA Benge to play on, so I sold it to a friend who liked it more than I had. It's not a bad horn, but it's not a great horn. I'd say it's a good horn to "step up" on, or have as backup.
