| Annie, I got the opportunity to play one of my big band mates Kanstul Piccolo trumpet not to long ago and I have to tell you it was one of the sweetest pics I have played to date. Easy, easy blow and didn't have that real bright edgy sound I've found on some.
I'm not sure how much it cost, but I think it's worth a look.
For what it's worth, I play a Benge and as much as I hate to admit it, it outplayed mine.
He got his from WWBW and at the time he tried several brands including Schilke, Bach, and a rotary model. He said it was between the Kanstul and the Schilke, but he just liked the Kanstul better.
Hope this helps a little. |
