Student Bb Trumpet, Gold Finish Brass for School Band Orchestra Beginners

I am 49yrs old. I started out playing piano at 8yrs old. I can read and write music. I started playing the trumpet at 11yrs old. My first Trumpet was from Summer Hays Music center in Salt Lake City, Utah. I cannot remember my first Trumpet brand but I can tell you my last one was purchased in 2010 and it was a Bach Strad. It was my 2nd one and I unfortunately lost it in a house fire and I was under insured at the time. I have an old Yamaha a client gave me for payment on a job but it is dented and the valves are rough. Just as I was getting ready to send it in for repair it suggested to me to check out this Trumpet on Amazon. When I saw the price I was immediately turned off thinking, “This has to be junk!”. I’m shocked and amazed! The sound seems slightly flat but a good trumpet player can self tune with his lips. I’m only on day 2 of using this instrument but if you’re reading this, let me assure you, this is worth the money. I paid over $700 for a Trumpet similar to this one about 10yrs ago. I think this would be great for any beginner to medium player. I won’t say I’m a professional but I did take 1st place in state 1991 at the BYU Solo ensemble. I might buy another to keep as a spare. Money is tight right now, but eventually, I will purchase another box Stradivarius. This is a beautiful build. Perfect for the money. Best value out there.

Let me start with a short back story. My daughter has this very trumpet in lime green has had it for about 2 years. With no problems absolutely love it. However marching band requires silver or brass putting us in the market for another trumpet. The first one we order came in damage and unplayable. Amazon was very quick to get it replaced. While we were waiting the 5 days for the replacement to come in she was offered a Vincent Bach. Anyone from the music world understands the stigma that comes with it. My daughter played both and ultimately like this one better to my surprise. And know owns 2 vangoas trumpets. The silver one, one of the pearl buttons caps fell off but that was a cheap and easy fix. Both of her trumpets she loves. Although they are a bit on the cheaper they are still durable and play a high quality.

Perfect trumpet for my grand son. I could not be more happy with my purchase. It came with a case and valve oil and more accessories. Very well pleased with this

Bought for my grandson's first year of school band, and after a few months of practice, it seems to be a good value. The purchase price was less than the cost of renting one from the school for just one semester. It seems to have good sound quality, and band director stated it is a great starter instrument. If the band thing works out, we will pass this on to someone else and look at a higher quality trumpet, but this seemed a great way not to lose alot of money if he ends up deciding to do something other than band. I am not a musician by any means, but it seems well made and well worth the cost. Good value

Great product for beginners!

I'm 83 years old and haven't so much as held a trumpet in 60 years. The other day I was visiting a friend who plays and instructs trumpet. Hearing that I played in my youth, he handed me a horn and believe it or not I remembered the scale fingering and was able to make what might be described as music. He talked me into taking lessons and gave me some leads on used instruments. He also cautioned me against buying cheap Chinese trumpets on Amazon. Because of the price point and the positive reviews of the Vangoa Bb trumpet coupled with the ability to return the item I went against his advice. And I am happy I did (so is my friend by the way). The build quality, the finish, the playability and the tone of this trumpet is nothing short of amazing. All it needed out of the box was a little valve oil on the pistons. I've got nothing to gain by giving this positive review except for the satisfaction that someone with a limited budget might profit from what is basically a fine instrument. I'm over the moon with this purchase.

Amazing sound, comfortable stand, and valves run great with the oil that comes with the trumpet!!

My daughter has been playing this trumpet in exchange for her “real one” in her middle school band. Her teacher has even agreed with her that there isn’t much of a difference in quality/tone of sound between this and her brass trumpet. She would definitely recommend it as a cheaper option, and most definitely for the purpose of practicing.

Fue un regalo para mi padre y le gustó mucho, aunque dice que le genera un poco de molestia en el acomodo de sus dedos, la verdad yo no logro entender la diferencia a sus anteriores trompetas pero por eso le doy 4 estrellas
