EastRock Black Trumpet Brass Standard Bb Set for Student Beginner, Brass Instrument with Hard Case, Gloves, 7C Mouthpiece, Trumpet Cleaning Kit(Black)

Poco da dire. Sono riuscito a suonare alla prima e ne sono già felicissimo!!Sembra avere un suono pulito. Ho ripulito tutte le meccaniche e lubrificato. Funziona sempre meglio eeeeee poi si vedrà.

Ho aspettato un po' per fare questa recensione e provare questa tromba.Me l' aspettavo diversa, è arrivata con i tappi dei pistoni senza zigrinatura, sono rimasto un po' perplesso all' inizio, ma a dire la verità adesso mi piacciono più così.I pistoni si muovevano a fatica, erano sporchi di sostanza nera, ho provveduto alla pulizia e lubrificazione, ma dopo un po' si è ripresentato il problema. Dopo un paio di pulizie si è risolto, adesso la meccanica cammina normalmente e le valvole dell' acqua funzionano perfettamente.La voce è chiara e squillante, mi piace molto, sto usando un bocchino gewa 1-1/2C , e la tromba si sente molto corposa.Unica cosa che raccomando è di non lasciare nella tromba gocce nella campana quando si ripone, perchè la nichelatura non sembra molto resistente e si può rovinare.Comunque per la cifra spesa, è una bellissima tromba.

Seller is great. Trumpet shipped very fast. Trumpet is very nice, albeit a bit lighter than I'm used to. Not by much though and that said the trumpet doesn't have a "cheap" feel to it. My biggest gripe with the instrument is that the valve covers on top are completely smooth outside. This is a huge product flaw. The first time it gets stuck on, there's no grip to get leverage to spin the cap off to service the valves. It would require a pair of vice grips or pliers to take them off which would surely damage the cap and possibly the valves shape which would render the trumpet broken and useless. For the price point, this is a good instrument for a returning player who understands the pitfalls this trumpet presents and not a beginner who doesn't. We complimented this purchase with a better 3C mouthpiece, matching silver straight mute, matching silver lyre music holder and cleaning kit all purchased separately. We had some issue getting the valves piled and seated appropriately prior to playing. It was not playable out of the box.. I almost returned it- but picked it back up and got it figured out. Again, for less than $200 this is a great instrument for a returning part time instrumentalist but I can't reccomend this trumpet to be played/used consistently over time. I just don't see it lasting without meticulous handling and cleaning - which a student won't understand yet. Also bear in mind that there are no finger guard inlays on the keys like most trumpets. It is a smooth polished metal surface. Not a deal breaker but contributes to the "cheap" feel.I would purchase again but under the correct conditions. I purchased for my son who is in his 3rd year playing in school band. We will see how long it lasts this time, but I probably wouldn't purchase this again for a student- I'd spend a little more for one with ribbed valve covers and pearl finger guards which is sure to add a longer lifespan to any trumpet.

Upon receiving this trumpet, I tested it out right away. The overall look seemed to be alright. But there are flaws. The valve cluster is slightly tilted and crooked (this should be straight). The valves are not cut correctly and do not have a way to correctly align them to their correct positions. This is causing incorrect air flow thus causing wrong notes. I couldn't even manage to perform a simple B♭ concert scale. When a note was supposed to be higher, it went lower and flat. Most of these reviews are from parents who have no idea what to look for in instrument quality. I went into this knowing it was a $200 trumpet, and of course it was not professional quality, but I at least expected to receive a trumpet that can at least play correct notes. Oh, and did I mention? IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A SERIAL NUMBER.

Valves got stuck, and we had it professionally cleaned and they still stick, even with proper maintenance. We bought new mouth piece to make it sound better. Good for the money to see if student likes playing before you spend more money.Updated* not good for the money! Valves continue to stick, is not usable, haven’t heard back from seller when trying to contact them. I would look for used good quality trumpet before purchasing this, especially if I don’t hear back from customer support.
