Pros:
price, playability, tone, intonation, look
Cons:
a little "spitty" (like all pocket trumpets)
I recently bought the new purple version of this horn at a shop here in Tokyo more for fun than anything else & I was extremely surprised at the quality of this very inexpensive horn. Leave it to Japanese technology to make 'em smaller & cheaper with good quality! It has a nice sound, a little on the mellow side, but not in a bad way. Good intonation, even in the 3rd valve. Nice smooth valves. I use a Monette Prana mouthpiece and it gives it a surprisingly full sound. It's not going to replace a full-sized pro horn, but as a cheap, fun accessory it's a great buy!
