Many owners of raw brass trumpets have complained of skin reactions to raw brass:

"Is there anyone else out there that is allergic to raw brass?....I can't let my skin touch raw brass for a second."
"It is raw brass, which is why I use the valve guard. It helps keep the raw brass stench off my hands. I love the look, but hate the smell."
