Hi, Bryan,

I like my Blessing Artist-141 Cornet. It has an excellent silverplate finish and has a nice sound with good intonation. The valves are remarkably smooth and do not stick. They move fast enough for me. Nice case and mouthpiece are supplied (Blessing 7C), but I use Denis Wick mouthpieces instead.

Con: Cornet only comes with one (1) Amado water key. One more would have been nice.

Overall. like Blessing istruments, but not everyone does. As far as trumpets go, some like them...some don't.

They are not the most expensive intruments and may not be the quality you (and others) are used to, but they fit a niche.

Buying a Blessing didn't leave me broke....

Best wishes!
