N\B LeSage Trumpet Standard Bb Brass Instruments Student Trumpet with Gold Case Professional Trumpet for Beginner with 7C Mouthpiece Glove

by N\B

Electrophoretic paint process coating uniform, thin, not easy to crack, corrosion resistance, hundreds of adjustments to ensure the quality of each Trumpet.

The LeSage Trumpet for Beginners is a good, inexpensive instrument for beginner musicians. The horn is sturdy and well-built, and it's versatile enough to play a variety of music. The 7C mouthpiece is bright, responsive, and very responsive to changes in dynamics. The instrument is loud enough for outdoor performances, but it's a bit quieter than some premium trumpets, so it's better suited to playing indoors. The horn is light enough to carry, but it's a bit heavy for younger players, so it's best for children who are at least 10 years old. The trumpet comes in a sturdy case, which protects the instrument and makes it easy to carry. The included accessories are nice, but the case isn't large enough to fit everything you need in a band. The trumpet requires a mouthpiece, which is not included. The LeSage trumpet is a good choice for beginner musicians, but it's a bit louder than some instruments that are best for indoor performances.

KGUBrass Optimizer for practicing and playing without excessive mouthpiece pressure, the device for correcting excessive pressure, must-have for brass players, trumpeters

KGUBrass Optimizer for practicing and without playing excessive mouthpiece pressure

by KGUBrass

Useful for students, beginners, experienced trumpeters and brass players. The KGUBrass Optimizer is an effective tool, which helps to control how you take higher notes and effectively breaks the habit of an unintentional mouthpiece pressure on the lips.

The KGUBrass Optimizer is basically an air pressure regulator. It senses when the mouthpiece is pushed too hard and releases the air, interrupting your buzz. The Optimizer has a range of setup, so you can adjust the system so the pressure is released more gradually, or at a certain point. This makes it more effective than devices with spring-based pressure controls, which simply release all the air at once. The KGUBrass Optimizer is also a lot quieter than other devices. The Optimizer was easy to use, and the instructions were clear and easy to understand. The device is compact and sturdy, and it's easy to transport it with you. The Optimizer comes with a storage bag, so you can store it and take it with you to practices and concerts.

The trumpet is well made, and the sound is loud and clear. The trumpet is loud enough for its performance, and it's perfect for marching bands. It's loud enough to play in the street, too, but it's much quieter than some of the other trumpets we tested. The horn also isn't fussy about how far it hangs. The mouthpiece and valves are made of plastic, which is hard and uncomfortable, but it pumps out the notes just fine. The trumpet comes unassembled, which makes it easy to transport, but it also means you'll need to put it together. The kit comes with a wrench, but it's small size makes tightening the screws difficult. The trumpet is made of plastic, so it's prone to dents and scratches. The trumpet isn't too loud at the highest notes, and it's also not very loud at its lowest notes, so it's best suited for marching bands rather than for practice.
