  • There's been a bunch of cheap beginner trumpets appearing on auction sites recently. Some of these are made in India and cost as little as $40 excluding shipping. Are they worth anything? In this video I unbox and review it.

    for a $40 trumpet that actually sounded quite pleasant. Some notes were a little squacky but you still sounded better than 90% of the trumpet section at my school

      I'd rather spend $40 on groceries and $1000 on a good used 50 or more year old U.S. or British made instrument. No child deserves a horn that no one would enjoy playing. An instrument lie Trent demos would make a child think: "why did I ever want to play music in the first place". That goes with cheap woodwinds, percussion, and even keyboards as well. Buying a child a piece of junk to learn on? Well then you ought to feel cheap and guilty of shorting your child.

    Here's my rule: "If you can make a good sound out of a crappy instrument, how much more in a good one."

    • @jmitterii2
      @jmitterii2 4 года назад +10

      1) A student will likely never make a good sound out of it; and instead frustrate them
      1.5) and maybe so bad they can't stay in tune with the band.
      2) Just because you can kind of make a decent sound, a professional musician who is playing for hours and hours in a day can't be tired in the first 10 minutes of playing a poorly made instrument.
      2.5) Professional bands don't have time for the musician take several minutes to tune, and they can't risk it falling out of tune during a long performance.
      3) Nobody student or professional wants to work harder than they need just to make "good" sounds.
      3.5) And this eliminates them from playing more difficult pieces later on.
      Conclusion:
      That being said, there is reasons not to go insane either with something that's all hype... you need to test our the instrument, look at it, or have someone who knows what to look for look at it. $300 to $1000 is good... and for students, if you want to potentially save money: just rent the same value instrument in case they decide to go for a different instrument or no longer play.

    In all fairness, my $5500 trumpets valves were sticky too when I opened it up for the first time. The music store greased and oiled it up for me prior to leaving with it. This seems like a good cheap investment for someone who may be unsure if the trumpet is the instrument for them. Would rather spend under $100 than thousands or more on a "good" instrument just to find out you hate it.

    • @hayesman76
      @hayesman76 3 года назад

      I’m increasingly of the opinion that when it comes to trumpets the mouthpiece may in many instances be more important than the instrument itself.
      To me this trumpet actually didn’t sound bad at all, especially in light of the fact that you’d just unboxed it shortly prior to lubing and playing it.
      Having said that, the crucial question is, “Will it stand the test of time?” That’s the area that I question this trumpet’s value in. For someone who just “fools around” with the instrument or who just wants to get an idea of how it feels to hold and play a trumpet this instrument probably would be cost-effective. For a more serious student it’d probably be advisable to go with even a Chinese horn that’s received a fair number of positive reviews online.

    Hey, Trent, you must know that moving the 1st or 3rd valve slide without depressing that valve is a really bad idea. It creates suction, resistance and eventually air leaks. that's why that 3rd valve slide was so tough to move.

You will be kicking yourself down the road after you’ve been playing for a while and actually try a better made horn, even if it’s just a student line horn, they will be much better made and you will sound much better and feel more confident playing it.
