Excellent trumpet for the price. I purchase this instrument for my son that is in middle school. It sounds great, and is in tune compared to others more expensive trumpets. Sounds great, looks, great and at a great price....what more do you want?

I have this in a folded horn/bass reflex design and let me tell you, this sucker is fantastic.  Im all about sound quality, and i experimented with this in that particular design, and after two builds, i have it tuned to perfection.  The enclosure is huge, but reaches down to 26 hertz and it seems like its barely moving.  If you have the room for it, this sub in a horn is magic. All youll need to do is to nail stuff down in your house.

This item was amazing! We use it at church for the music and it sounds amazing. It is high pitch , I will give it that but It is just so nice. Now the only reason I did not give it 5 stars is due to the fact that the plastic frame was as if it was not properly sanded down , so if you were to hit it on the plastic bump it might hurt a bit haha. At one point I bled a bit, I fixed it by sanding it down myself with sandpaper . This my not be the case with all of the tambourines but it was for mine so just watch for that!

I have used this mouthpiece since the mid 1990's and have been more satisfied with it than any other. The trombone that I play is an Elkhart Conn 88H. The mouthpiece has only improved the great sound possible from this classic instrument.

The large back bore allows a great authoritative sound on the low end of tenor trombone playing, while not limiting the high range. I would recommend this mouthpiece to any individual who wants to feel and sound his or her best at the full range of the instrument.

Bought this for my son after reading many reviews and looking at many brands, I decided on this one. I hate buying something to have it not work for me or anyone else this maybe why I like amazon so much. My son has a king trumpet for marching band and bach strad trumpet he uses for concert band. He travels from his moms house to mine and began bringing this with him for practice on the weekends. It sounds great and he really likes it, no complaints from him. I know all his trumpet buddies at school tried it out and he is really proud of it. I was surprised by the full sound at half size. I think he just liked the small size as a gag but he bring it with him to practice on now. Im sure oiling the trumpet and taking care of it this will last a long time. The case is form fitted, the stand stores in the bell of the trumpet, the zipper up front will hold the tuner as long as it is unzipped. Would buy again very nice product.

I am 81 years old and haven't played trumpet (cornet) since freshman yr.
 My lip not quite there yet  so this was a great horn for me.
  It is a beautiful instrument and very good for the price.
No defects,has a good sound, all the valves and slides work fine.
  Would recommend for student or an old codger like me wanting to try again.  .

It is just wonderful. I liked it very much. It sounds so awesome when paired with a HK receiver. If you are considering it, just go ahead and buy it. You will not be disappointed.

This is a great horn for those who like the warm dark sounds of large orchestras, but if you want good intonation and security, get a different horn.

It served me very well through high school. I purchased mine through music&arts brand new and I loved it from the moment I got it ($3,900.00 at the time). It was the best thing to happen to me right up until I got into college with a bunch of other people who were more experienced than myself. I began working with a former principal horn of a state Symphony of national acclaim who had a job there for about 20 years. Within a year of his instruction, I knew I would need a new horn, but it took that long to notice it. Any horn that could make me believe in myself like this one did deserves high acclaim. It does deliver very dark tone, a reasonable intonation basis, and it gives the player the ability to play much louder without getting quite as crass as smaller horns. I have received several compliments on my tone while playing this horn. The maintenance is average. There may be options for water keys, and I highly recommend you seek them out. Mine had no such water keys and every time I want to empty spit, I have to turn my horn several times to get it out of all the places it could be. This horn definitely deserves consideration.

The problem (and one of the only ones) I found with the Conn 8D (for me) is that the high register, while being somewhat coherent, had poor intonation centers. The G just above the staff would always come out flat and the partial the C above the staff was supposed to be at was at least a half step off (I determined this after several months of careful examination and sharing the results with my professor), causing me to work impossibly hard to get out anything above an A just above the staff. Not every horn player will notice this or care for this technical issue, but with the technique I am using, it is crucial to have perfect intonation centers on the horn. This allows for a better connection between player and instrument and allows the player to develop a trust that would otherwise not exist. I am currently playing on my Conn 8D, and to compensate for this, I must make my horn incredibly sharp and use my hand to bend it down in the lower register, and I STILL have to use my hand so much that it might as well not be in the bell at all in the upper register, around the C, to get it to properly speak. Even with these compensations, it makes hitting the notes on staccato or very soft entrances extremely difficult. This proves to be a huge inconvenience, and with any luck, I will be switching to a new horn soon.

My recommendation from what I know on the subject and what has been recommended to me is the Yamaha 567 for the cheapest, most accurate option. For a long-lasting, professional horn, I suggest custom horns made by Jacob Medlin, which is where I hope to purchase one of my next horns. These intonation centers are spot on and the custom horn is assured to deliver the ability to play with many colors while still maintaining integrity of the classical horn sound. There are other benefits to getting a custom horn of that quality, but for someone making it through college, the factory-made YHR-567 will do the trick. Having such intonation centers allows for very soft and very loud playing, even in the highest and lowest parts of the register. There is likely to be debate on the importance of this aspect and the importance of other aspects that make these horns very different, and while I am open to them, these are the ones that grabbed my attention and make the difference for me. There is quite a lot of physics, research, and experience that goes into this review, and I hope some will find it helpful.

Honestly one of the best English horns.  This English horn is very good for any player.  Once you get it adjusted once it will hold very a pretty long time.  My English horn has held up for a long time.  I got some custom keyword added to it and a new bell in cocobolo and it works soo good.  I highly recommend d for anyone, it's cheap and very reliable.  A+ English horn

I don't know much about trumpet music, but I got this for a young beginner in this instrument and he says he really liked it, so I'm happy.

My wife owns this and we are blown away at how well it works. It really does silence the horn like you wouldn't believe, and she said it sounds great through the headphones. The only complaint is that the included headphones are uncomfortable, but I'm sure most musicians own a good pair of headphones anyway. Well worth the money for a horn player who wishes to practice without playing for the whole neighborhood!

This is an amazing instrument for the price. I bought it specifically to learn to play one song: Led Zep's "The Battle of Evermore" and this thing makes it sound amazing. I learned the song in about 45 minutes (mostly just because of my prior experience with guitar) and that only made me want to learn more. This mandolin is so much fun for 65 dollars, that I wonder why I still pay full price for some video games.
