Product Description

In creating the Giardinelli GTR 512 Professional Trumpet -- the first Giardinelli trumpet -- the goal was simple: to offer the best possible instrument at the lowest possible price. Working with a leading European manufacturer, Giardinelli has developed a trumpet that more than meets that goal: a professional-quality horn for a student-level price! Every trumpeter who has played the new GTR 512 has absolutely loved it. It is a responsive, free-blowing horn with excellent tone. Impeccably crafted throughout, it features a .460" bore; rose brass mouthpipe and slide crooks; hand-lapped stainless steel pistons; adjustable 3rd slide ring; and a 4.9" bell. The Giardinelli GTR 512 Professional Trumpet comes with hard case and thickwall mouthpiece.

This is my favorite trumpet. I've been playing trumpet for 14 years. My wife bought this for me on my birthday, but in Black Lacquer. Best Horn, especially for the price. Can't find a professional quality horn for this price, plus the tone is just awesome. A nice dark tone, probably because of the great Giardinelli mouthpiece that comes with it. In my opinion, if you're looking for an inexpensive professional horn, this is the way to go.
