I've had one for almost a year and think it is a fine horn for the money. You can see my reviews in WWBW Barrington trumpet listings. I have the Rose Brass model and have used it as my main horn in the KCB Kalamazoo Concert Band which I have been in for 37 yrs.The Barrington is well built and has had no significant issues. I was fortunate to run across some they had in the Clearance section at the time for an extremely low price. I have recently fixed up the valves on my Besson, so I am using that often also. Has a lovely sound.
