Trumpet

Description

Getzen 490 Series: These are considered "Advanced Student" trumpets, offering superior quality to typical entry-level instruments

The gold brass bell contributes to a warmer, richer tone, while the hand-spun, seamless bell and nickel silver inside tubing enhance durability for a classroom setting. Getzen's 300/400 series is known for being a high-quality, durable student instrument with features often found in professional models.

Gold Brass Mouthpipe and Bell: The "G/B" in the description refers to the use of gold brass for the mouthpipe and bell. Gold brass produces a warmer, richer sound compared to yellow brass.

Superior Sound: The gold brass bell helps produce a warmer, freer-blowing sound, making the instrument suitable for students who want more than a basic trumpet.

Durability: The instrument is built to withstand the rigors of daily student use, including strong bracing, tube joints, and reinforced bell rims.

Value: The combination of quality materials, hand-craftsmanship, and professional-level features makes it a superior value for a student trumpet.
