Im planning to get one of this.. to learn, I HAVE CERO KNOLEDGE on how to play the trumpet. Is a good option to start from cero?
what do you think the best trumpet brand is
Did this guy even play this thing ? I keep skipping and didn’t find the instrument played just talking
Trent, I am so happy to announce that you have inspired me to get a soprano trombone xD it’s so much fun and I owe it all to you
Even I, a frozen cave man from the states, knows this is overpriced crap. Price should be $49.95?
You have a very good presentation with this horn, and I wouldn’t say anything negative but really check out Alison Balsom’s review before dumping the idea of purchasing one. A person could be really proficient without regret of having this horn.
I saw an a Walmart ad for a $150 USD, plastic euphonium. I’d imagine a review of that wouldn’t be too dissimilar to this.
constipation
I almost bought one of these to learn with. Maybe not.
*Gasp* In Keel Row did you play the second pair of sixteenth-dotted eighths on the ‘a’ of 2? How could you do such a thing, you monster?! (I’m just pullin’ your leg, though)
Tromba about $200, Cicilio made in China “trumpet shaped object $89 online and $100 at local swap meet. I assume they’re shit but a busker I know has been making a living with his Cicilio for months on end so …. go brass
Hey man, you are playing the valves wrong.
how much moolah?
he does not have his fingers curved
How does it stack up to the fake Bach Stradivarius?
are you fucking me in the ass right now, $150
when trumpets become a woodwind…
he stats playing at 6:03
As a former trumpet player, PLEASE LEARN TO HOLD IT RIGHT OMFG.
Not that it really matters… but what comes out is not spit, it’s condensation.
Are the valves Berliner rather than Perinot?
Why’d you put your pinkie there
It amazes me how people buy cheap instruments or beginner instruments that are hard to play for their child starting out. They would do better with a good advance instrument, less feedback, freer blowing, better valves it just make it easier for them to learn instead of struggling. if you can’t buy a new advance instrument then buy used. My 2 cents for the day
At least you tell the truth about the terrible quality you get when buying a plastic trumpet
Would using a Kelly plastic mouthpiece be any better? They’re made of a polycarbonate, I believe.
What key is that Trumpet in?
That third variation sounds beethoven inspired 🙂
I’m playing the trumpet in my school band for Are spring concert
Hi Trent- I have a question. When I first got my trumpet back in 5th grade, she told me never to flat-finger, as it could bend the valves. I notice that you do just that. Is this just a myth, or is it a bad habit?
I broke my trumpet from my 3rd valve tuning slide cracking and the 2 nd valve is so stuck that it isn’t going to come out ever
I don’t need it I have an intermediate silver Bach trumpet. I know, it’s good
well as dad spending 12 99 150 00 im going for 1299 if kid dont like playing after week your just out 1299 aest went to gas food rent trip to park water ride train ride the life time of thing cant be lost put in the trash
With the plastic mouthpiece. The sound from the trumpet sounded pretty “plastickykkykyky” But with the metal one sounds way more brighter and better
I think your fingers are getting tired because you’re pushing them with your finger is completely flat, rather than an arched.
Good video. As an adult, I bought one of these to use as a learning tool, and as such it is ideal – not too expensive, gives an idea of what playing a trumpet can be like, and has allowed me to get up and running. Mine had none of the defects mentioned in the video, but I guess they are fairly inconsistent when they roll off the production lines. I have yet to buy a proper trumpet, but went through a similar process with trombone, started on a pBone then bought a good quality metal instrument. Once that switch is made, there is no going back, and I expect the same for the trumpet. It was heartening to hear that even an accomplished player considered it difficult to play, so my reasoning for now is that if I can make a plastic trumpet sound good, it bodes well when I eventually get a good instrument.
Have you ever tested out a plastic tuba?
hey trent i noticed the “plummers putty” comment. my cornet has a leak and it is driving me up the wall. please advise.
It’s not spit, it’s condensation!
One Word: Whyalwaysbrass?
Lol $150 for plastic? I spent 250 on a used great condition silver coated Bach student trumpet
