A Functional, Cheap, and SEXY trumpet for $120...

[@Xzyum00]

Any good trombonist should recognize that outro! I've played that in a few auditions (although the second movement is my favorite movement). Intro was also fantastic, looks like you worked hard on it.

[@tobysturgell121]

Luggage I have also, but I mainly play Euphonium

[@Metal-Possum]

Somebody needs to assemble a brass brand using only budget instruments. Mix it up a little by switching everyone's preferred roles with ones they're least capable of. A bit like Portsmouth Sinfonia.

[@oldguydoesstuff120]

Bugler's Holiday - one of my favorite trumpet feature pieces. Simple enough (at perhaps a slightly slower tempo) for intermediate trumpeters to play decently, yet still challenging enough for professionals to show off their skills. A really fun piece to both play and listen to. Nice job on the recording, Trent. Keeping all of those staccato notes together isn't easy. Oh, that's an interesting trumpet, too.

[@petersage5157]

Keeping the staccato notes together is fairly simple with a solid click track. ;) This is definitely a great choice for an intro about a decent quality instrument in a sea of crap. I love everything about the piece, including the implied reference to the busman's holiday trope.

[@hayda7630]

I bought a mendini trumpet over a year ago and it works just as good to this day

[@Frizzy678]

Trust me buddy, exactly what I thought but that literally split in 2 pieces after 4 years

[@MoosiVibez]

I always had issues with my valves with mendini trumpets lmao

[@garymartin9777]

Cheap Mendini's have too much backpressure and difficulty on the very low end of the scale. I'd stay clear.

[@richardgordon8110]

TRENT, FOR A LOW BRASS PLAYER, YOU PLAY BEAUTIFUL TRUMPET.

[@supyoist]

I believe he is or was primarily a cornet player

[@sceu25]

Well he started on cornet

[@Euphonium_boi]

He plays the better instrument, euphonium! Trumpet is rly cool tho ngl

[@Jimmehftw]

As a woodwind player I concur.

[@tobysturgell121]

You should buy an American Marching Tuba/ Contra. Like if you want to see him do it.

We had Bugler’s Holiday as a euphonium trio for our Christmas Concert. Glad to hear it again!

[@richardgordon8110]

AT 72, I STILL CAN'T COME ANY WHERE NEAR THAT LEVEL OF PLAYING.

[@gianlucatarasconi2194]

Nice performance both for intro and outro an really exhaustive review (as usual) thank you so much and happy new year Trent.

[@peterc.7841]

Great playing as always. I believe the rose brass leadpipes resist corrosion, because in brass, red rot occurs when the zinc degrades. With less zinc, less red rot. I read that somewhere.

[@aaronquick7892]

I found your channel from your pocket trumpet video and have been subbed I got one for Christmas also you do a great job on your videos you deserve more subs and views

[@seanwright9425]

That intro was boss

[@pitgroove.37_66]

As far as the rose brass lead pipe goes, it actually does make a difference compared to the regular yellow brass. Not only does rose brass give it a little bit warmer tone, but it's also corrosion resistant and less likely to get corroded as opposed to your basic yellow brass

[@christophertsiliacos8958]

Once the cheap trumpet 'gives up the ghost' as a trumpet, one can possibly use it as a bugle, or have it made into a nice decorative desk/end table lamp. Or just use it as a decorative wall hanger. 😉 🎺

[@huntershilley1648]

Played in elementary school, I really want to play it again… this video was insightful.

[@steakhousejohn5990]

Variations are not unique to cheap instruments. In my experience, two new bach strad 37's can sound and feel very different. But that's probably because they are hand made.

[@TrentHamilton]

I think all brass are hand assembled - what differs is the conditions in which the workers operate. I imagine the people who assemble these cheap trumpets have certain quotas to fill, and so their focus is on quantity.

[@loganstroud7357]

Steakhouse John I agree and it’s odd that a $3000 instrument can still be so inconsistent with others just like it

[@willtucker1872]

My high school band played Bugler’s Holiday in our holiday concert last year

[@jamesburnett7085]

I loved the intro music.

[@Rayxl1]

I've got the windsor trumpet from amazon that is about the same price. I did the abrsm grade 1 trumpet exam with this instrument and passed with a distinction. I think I will run out of ability before the trumpet does.

Hi Trent, I was wandering about what size Trumpet mouthpiece you use? I use a Schilke 22.

[@colingentry47]

How does this trumpet compare to the Jean Paul trumpet that was reviewed a while ago?

[@TrentHamilton]

Jean Paul is superior. Probably not as visually appealing, but the QC is far better and that results in a better experience.

[@whugheswhughes98144]

Great video! Questions: have you had any trouble playing high (G/A/C?) on this? How about slow valves? AFter playing a Mendini for 6 months, I've started to have troubles with all the values getting slow, even though I've washed it completely, lube it daily, tried different oil, etc. And they show light scratching .....

[@TrentHamilton]

No issues so far, but it is impossible for me to test for longevity as I don’t have time to play these instruments for weeks/months on end.

[@ROY-COLLEY]

Hi Trent, Hope you dont mined me asking . Is that a Mendini by Cecilio with the Monel piston MTT 30CL ?

[@jebatman756]

Would you recommend this over the Thomann TR200?

[@JxT1957]

is this trumpet an ammoon or as good as an ammoon? i bought a silver ammoon cornet from tomtop for $138
