Good beginner horn, but not for intermediate or advanced players 
2008-10-09
Obviously this is a beginner horn. It is a nice horn with decent slotting. The standard 7c mouthpiece is strong silver plated, and works great, but it does need extreme scrubbing every day after play. Normally I'll just go rinse them, but this one needs a scrub. There are 2 braces on main lead, which is just that much more attention to detail. Some issues that I have with the horn, is that it is only free-blowing to an extent. After a certain point, it will lock on you. I do not know if this is because of the 7c mouthpiece that came with it or not, but ffff is not as easily done with this horn, as another. I have had a minor issue with the first valve. It sticks a little, so I have to oil it 2x as much, and it rotates a little. It is not very tight. I give it a little extra oil to stop any leaks, and that seems to do the trick. I do play often, and while I would not consider myself advanced by any means, I do like this horn. The mouthpiece that it comes with does slot ok, but isn't as responsive as I'd like in the lower registers. In the middle and upper it does ok. As I've had to move, and pawn my beautiful old back strat, this horn had done suitably well for my needs, and for anyone who is in the beginner stage, who knows this is the instrument they will go with, I would definitely recommend this horn. It is very well machined, and comes with the suzuki name. As a beginner horn, I can't recommend it enough. As an intermediate or advanced horn, stick with a xeno or a strat, or something higher.
Student and Instructor give this trumpet a thumbs-up! 
2008-08-31
This trumpet looks exactly like the excellent photos included on this page. My sixth grader was excited by the aluminum case, and my 12th grade saxophone player thought it looked good. His best friend plays trumpet and french horn and said it was good too. But I worried what the band instructors would say after they sent home a note warning parents not to buy from the big chain stores because of inferior quality. Well, the trumpet instructor was pleasantly surprised when he pulled the trumpet from its case, and told my son it was a "great" trumpet. I ordered with Prime, and paid for the $3.99 overnight shipping. We received the instrument within twenty-four hours.
I highly recommend this musical instrument.
Fine quality with velour aluminum case 2008-08-25
This is a student trumpet, but I was amazed at the fine quality of this band instrument. Suzuki has been the worlds largest producer of educational musical instruments for 55 years.
The roadie case is rugged aluminum outside, plush velour-covered custom-formed foam inside. It has spaces for an additional mouthpiece and cleaning kit.
The 7c mouthpiece is very heavy with a top grade silver plated finish. The body has both gold and brass finishes, slides are accented with nickel silver, and there are 2 water keys with rubber seals. The smooth operating monel steel piston valves have mother-of-pearl buttons and finely polished double-sized valve guides. And, there is an engraved filigree logo across the bell which stands out with a professional appeal.
The final feature which I've not see on a student trumpet is the double bracing on the forward tuning slide. All other trumpets I looked at have a weaker single brace.
This is an excellent trumpet for the low cost and will give you many years of musical satisfaction.
