This review is from: Jean Baptiste TP900S Silver Trumpet

Bought this trumpet for my son several years back at Sam Ash. Apparently Jean Baptiste is sort of a Sam Ash "house brand"; the word on the web is that this model is actually made by the well-known German company B+S (I never verified this for sure but I did do a side-by-side comparison between this horn and a photo of the equivalent B+S model, and they seemed to be identical in every detail). Before buying it I found some reviews at [...] (do a Google search for TP-900S, the link to the review will come right up). The reviewers compare it with the Bach Strad (of course, everything gets compared to the Strad); the consensus seems to be that it doesn't quite measure up to a Strad but is a great deal for the money. The horn is very well made, we never had any trouble with the slides or valves, and it looks and plays great.
