Help identifying trumpet

trumpetbeginner11 · 11-20-2007, 11:17 PM

I have an old pawnshop trumpet i got from a neighbour.

It was made in germany, has "jubilee" engraved on top of the bell it appears to be made of brass with various chrome coloured parts. Can yout ell me anything about this? i am not experienced enough to say how well it plays other than that the valves are generally stiffer than the yamaha i play at school. I can put up pictures if that would help, i just want any information you can give and i'm kind of wondering if it is very low quality or mid quality, or whatever. I got it for free and am technically borrowing it from a neighbour at the moment.

THank you for any information
PS. only the third valve tuning key moves, is there a safe way to unjam the other tuning slides?

An experienced repairman is the safest way to free things up.
A very good chance he (she) can identify the horn also.
