Re: New trumpet decision

If you can find a Bach that plays in tune with a sound and responce you like, then you've probably found a horn that'll work great for you, since you're already leaning that way. Try several if you can, as they tend to be inconsistant.

There are lots and lots of great horns in that price range, especially if you look for used horn and you may find something you like better than the Bach. Yamaha and Schilke would be my personal other choices, and I'm sure others will have many more suggestions, but I haven't gotten to play many of the new custom and semi-custom horns that are out there (NYTC, Ecplise, etc...).

As with any trumpet, I'd suggest trying it before you buy it...and play it for people with ears you trust to see what's actually getting to the audiance!

Sorry, I don't know the "Ransalear" brand.
