Pros:
Good valves, easy registers
Cons:
mediocre intonation, problems with case and mouthpiece
Pretty good horn for the money. Intonation on the first valve could be better, and I would have preferred a tuning lever on the third valve instead of the kick-slide it has.
As a side note; the mpc it came with (Blessing 3FL) was a little stuffy - but switched to Yamaha Bobby Shew piece and worked just fine. Also, the case that it comes in has no extra storage room and if a trumpet goes in it where the trumpet is SUPPOSED to go, it compresses the valves when it closes. I'm not sure if it creates wear - but it's something to watch out for.
