I have the exact same trumpet. YTR 6335 H heavy version. I just woke her from sleep and oiled the valves and lubricated the trains. Then I looked at google what is written about this trumpet. And I found your great site. I hope you become a second Maurice André! :-)
A "corporation era" 3C is a great mouthpiece, and they're worth more than brand new ones for a reason (assuming it says "corp." or "corp ." or corp" on it).
I do believe this was a corporation-era 3C. It had a really nice feel but I couldn't test it on my main horn so there's too many variables to judge properly.
I am thinking of buying this model 6335 instead of a beginner trumpet because I do not want to upgrade later. Secondhand trumpets do not really sell. What do you think? Thanks a lot.
Good call. This would be an excellent horn to start out on. Now, keep in mind: there is a tricky thing about the model 6335. What you see in this video is the older, professional-level version. What you'll much more commonly see on the used market is the more recent, intermediate-tier trumpet under the same model number designation. One of Yamaha's frustrating foibles. I am sure the latter horn is good too, but I cannot attest to its quality, whereas the older 6335H is one of my absolute favorite trumpets.
i was told to get rid of my ytr6335g it's not a pro horn like the better xenos are but what wil a xenos do for me vs my intermedian 6335g have tried similar bach dident like them the best trumped i have played was not mine a Monette prana but 25.000usd vs 1600usd
I honestly think your 6335G is as good as any Xeno on the market if it is good used shape. So many of Yamaha’s intermediates and moreover their discontinued models play right up to par with their Xeno siblings. This particular horn felt better than a couple of Xeno horns I’ve played. If you ask me, keep your horn.
Crazy, the YTR 6335gs is a professional horn, so the person who said that does not know what they are talking about, used by professionals, it is well documented as a reliable horn.
I have this trumpet over 20 years , it is very great , I still play it now, but i think it becomes more loose , so i buy another trumpet ,I wish 6335 can be played longer.
Those two are on opposite ends of a spectrum. The 2330 is a solid beginner horn, but not even in the ballpark of this model. This is a professional-level trumpet. It's not really valid to compare the two because they're built at vastly different price points.
It won't make a world of difference, but if you are committed to practicing and improving it might be a worthy investment. Particularly if you can find a used one under $1700.
I love my John Packer cornet, but to be totally honest I’m not sold on the JP by Taylor playtests that I’ve seen. It’s a cool looking intermediate horn but in the videos I’ve seen I can definitely hear some inconsistencies in tone and pitch
Played one briefly, not remotely impressed. If all you're interested in is aesthetics (and you like that style) then maybe they're slightly cool... but if that isn't coupled with impressive performance I'm simply not interested, and the performance just didn't impress me much. Bear in mind that the JP-Taylor and JP-Smith-Watkins instruments are still built in the same Chinese facility that makes the rest of the JP line - the build quality (which is critical) is the same as the standard JP models and that makes them "okay" (decent value at their pricepoints, but not troubling reputable professional models or custom makers).
Precisely! You need a Bb, C, D/Eb, maybe an F, A/Bb piccolo, flugel, US cornet, UK cornet- ah, whatever, throw in a few more Bb horns and a baritone or trombone.
It sounds like slightly immature (ie: not practiced enough) multiple tonguing to me... a skill well worth acquiring, but shouldn't be necessary at that tempo IMHO.

Same model that Mark Gould uses. Check out the Taylor/Gould Ewald recording for a great example of his playing.
Wow, I had no idea! Another testament to this being a GREAT horn.

Thank you for the review. I want this trumpet. Have you experienced the difference between the yellow brass and gold brass bells?
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately I am not an authority on bell materials.

I'm sorry to hear it wasn't as durable as you'd hoped, although I'm sure it's still a great horn!
@@SamuelPlaysBrass never mind, everything will become old, it is nature, 20 years not a short time
How does this horn compare to your Shew as far as sound and style ?
A little warmer, broader, and more classical. Wish I'd been able to try this horn before buying the Shew!
Would you recommend this trumpet or the Yamaha 2330?
Those two are on opposite ends of a spectrum. The 2330 is a solid beginner horn, but not even in the ballpark of this model. This is a professional-level trumpet. It's not really valid to compare the two because they're built at vastly different price points.
Samuel Plays Brass Thank you , do you think it would benefit me doing grade 3?

Have you ever heard of the jp by taylor? If not look it up, they are pretty cool

Trumpets are like motorcycles...you need lots of them.

First lol
Learn to. Play ok
Please watch a more recent video if you want to know how I play. There is no need to be rude on a video that is several years old.
