Thomann TR 200 Bb-Trumpet 4-stars Reviews

Great beginner's / kid's / camping trumpet

I picked this up for a 9-year-old student who wanted to start learning trumpet. The trumpet is perfectly fine, with decent valves, a clear tone, and good intonation. The parts are definitely a bit cheap — the screw holding the 3rd slide ring doesn't want to stay in place, for example. But for the price, it's perfect. You won't mind that much if it gets banged around, as kids' instruments do.

Plus: the included case is excellent, i was jealous. It's small, no wasted space, but quite protective.

Perfect for the unsure and casual

At this price point, this is a perfectly viable instrument and is well fitted for the individuals that are unsure of the instrument and also a casual like me that just sometimes picks it up to play some basic tunes for fun.

Great trumpet for beginners

This is a trumpet for beginners. It gives more than you can expect for the price. It has nice case, with everything you need to take care of your trumpet. If you are into playing trumpet for fun or if you are a beginner this is a trumpet for you. I am also not trumpetist so I can not give detailed review on the sound, response and features, cause I don't have other experience with trumpets except this one, but my friends who play trumpet were impressed by the quality for the price.

Good trumpet

I have purchased the instrument for my enjoyment, as a hobby. Found out that the quality and playability are way better than its affordable price indicated. Trying to make progress now.

Awesome for a beginner!

I wanted to to start playing the trumpet. So I bought the cheapest trumpet with the best reviews. With a faint heart I awaited the quality of the delivery. But oh my, what a nice package! Case, mouthpiece, some cleaningcloth, valve-oil, a practice book with cd and ofcourse the trumpet. I immediately took it to a friend who has been playing the trumpet for longer than he lives. And he was amazed by the quality! I am totally addicted, so I play about 2 - 3 hours a day. Sadly the main waterkey spring already gave up after a small month. But other than that it is a fantastic trumpet for it's price! If I would break it I would not even wait 2 minutes to order me another one! For that price you really can't go wrong!

Great introductory trumpet

Very descent sound and quality for its value. Recommended for beginners.

Make sure you oil the valves 1-2 times a week (oil's included) and grease the slides once a month.

Surprisingly decent

If you know how to take care of a brass intrument, this trumpet will be with you for years to come. Just clean it, oil it and lube it, and the pistons will work like butter! Sounds more than ok for a cheap trumpet. Don't expect a special sound, don't expect crap either. The included mouthpiece is fine too, but consider buying a better one after a while.

Plus, it comes with a free semi-hard case! Very good deal. Make sure to always leave the baggie of silicon pellets inside. If one isn't included, find one.

In conclusion, if you are a beginner or a budget user, love this trumpet and it will love you back.
