Pros: Dark sound and valves are very good! Horn's good looking to boot!
Cons: No 3rd valve spit valve!

I just ordered it tonight.

I drove three hour drive to a music store that had a lot of trumpets! I think I played close to 30 horns. Out of the 30 it all came down to two.

I was looking for a dark rich sounding horn, I own a Bach 180S37 Silver Plated Stradivarius Bb Trumpet now and will sell it as soon as I get my King Legend Pro 2070LSGX in.

The darknest of sound is like day and night.

I am sold! It is also the best looking horn I have ever seen. I have gold trimed out my strad but the King Legend Pro 2070LSGX is GOOD LOOKING.

Pros: big dark sound, response is good low to high, can cut through if needed!
Cons:

I've been playing on this horn since it first came out circa 2005ish. I think I have one of the first horns out of production. I own a music store and have the opportunity to test this instrument against a lot of different models that come in for repair and have not yet found one I like better (overall). I use a Reeves dynamic mass 43C and it is a wonderful match with this instrument. Even though it looks like short throw valves they are not, just appear that way. Had the name been Bach this would've been a top seller for a long time. Every once in a while I think I need a better horn but keep coming back to the 2070LSGX.
