Here we have a unique, medium bore Bb trumpet handmade by the master techs of the Carol Brass factory located in Chia-Yi, Taiwan. It has a 30% nickel-silver tube from the leadpipe all the way to the valve section with 90% copper outer tubes. The result is a buttery smooth sound and a feel more open than the 0.453" bore may suggest! It is finished in a very nice honey colored copper lacquer and includes the Carol case and accessories. It is a super fluid and flexible horn with a lot of color!
The horn comes with two tuning slides: one square for a traditional feel and one rounded for less resistance. Valves are in great shape. The CarolBrass valve block is used by some of the boutique manufacturers because of its quality and consistency.
