Trumpet Purchase
So You Want to buy a Trumpet?
There are hundreds of brands, and thousands of models to choose from...to see everything we carry, go to our ONLINE SHOPPING page. In the meantime, here are the three we most often recommend:
1) Bach TR300H (Good) 
Bach's best selling student model. It's the one we most often rent, and the one that will get a serious player through junior high school. A good mix of durability and performance, it has withstood the test of time. Click on the photo for pricing.
2) Bach TR200 (Better) 
The next step up, the TR200 incorporates an improved valve system with a two-piece bell. Easy to play, and more responsive than the student model, the TR200 may be the last trumpet you ever need.
3) Bach 18037 Stradivarius (Best) 
A fine professional balance between a classical and Jazz horn, the Bach Strad combines hand made valves with a one-piece bell. Perfect for the top level high school player, or anyone who wants to perfect their craft. You can spend more on a trumpet...but it probably won't sound any better than this one.
