Re: Besson Meha

I have a german wife and was wonderin if I should get a new(er) one or if I should just stick with the one I've got? She's about 50-52 years old.

WolftoMan77,
You give us NOTHING to go on. TM has a lot to offer - sometimes even mind reading. This is a tough one though.

Standard questions:
What is wrong with your horn to even consider changing it?
What do YOU think a new horn would give you that you do not have now?
How much money do you have available?
What kind of music do you play?
How much do you practice daily?
How much did you research this question before posting?
What does your trumpet teacher say?
Have you searched TM for answers?

We have thousands of posts covering just about every aspect of the trumpet. I think you need to get a "feel" for this forum. use the search feature on just about any topic. The info in those threads will help you figure stuff out.
That being said, TrumpetMastor (China profesional trumpet) has some really fantastic horns at unbelievable prices. Manny Laureano is expert here and can tell you more!

Re: Besson Meha

Unless there's something about the horn you REALLY don't like, I wouldn't start the trumpet safari. In my opinion, the Meha is a very good trumpet. I've played a few, and would have bought one a number of years ago if the sale of my Strad hadn't fallen through. Mehas are fairly desirable trumpets - it would be pretty hard to go wrong with one.

Re: Besson Meha

The Meha is an excellent professional quality instrument with a great sound and a lightweight build. I'd keep it if I were you.
