crowmadic will become famous soon enough
What words would you use?

I'd like to see if there is a common vocabulary used amongst musicians to convey the color/charcteristic of a particular Bb trumpet. I've used words like: bright, dark, shrill, sweet, velvety, brassy, smooth. Maybe the way to do this is to mention your Bb trumpet/s and describe the color/characteristic each has, or you've been told by a listener it has.
