Responsive 2-piece yellow brass bell
Beginner musicians choose their primary instruments based on sound. Luckily, the BTR-1287's yellow brass body and bell produce that bright and cheerful sound they're hoping to achieve! Flaring out to five inches, its bell yields a broad, steady sound that grants beginners an improved sense of control. Additionally, a 1st-valve thumb saddle adds stability while you hold your horn, and a 3rd-valve ring trigger makes for easy, spur-of-the-moment tuning so that young players will feel in command during their debut performances.
Reliable stainless steel valve system
Made from ultra-durable stainless steel, the BTR-1287's pistons are the top performers when it comes to anti-corrosive, fast-acting valve systems. Each of the BTR-1287’s pistons is expertly crafted to move in a uniform manner, wearing as evenly as possible over time. They are also capped with plastic buttons for improved finger control and a traditional trumpet look.
