Starter C Trumpet Bundle! Get everything you need to get started with C trumpet playing (or to find a fantastic C on a budget)! Includes the following:
- Brasspire Unicorn 1000C in silver plate
- ACB MV3C mouthpiece in traditional blank (silver plate)
- Denis Wick Aluminum Straight Mute
- Hercules Trumpet Stand
- Ultra Pure Cleaning Kit
The Brasspire C trumpet is a fantastic value!
The Brasspire 1000C features a large .462 Bore, a red brass bell with nice semi-flat bead, and great slide rings. It was designed by Kei Aruga, chief engineer of the MAC corporation Japan.
This is IMO the perfect C trumpet for the occasional player, the student looking for their first C trumpet, and the player who doesn't want to deal with all the alternate fingerings needed to make a traditional C trumpet play in tune. This horn is really incredible. If you need a C trumpet for church work, brass quintet, orchestra gigs, or solo playing but you don't play enough C trumpet to justify $2,000-3,000, you need to check out the Brasspire 1000C.

Our popular ACB MV3C mouthpiece helps achieve the ideal C trumpet sound
I have often wondered why you see the eBay auctions of Bach Mount Vernon 3C mouthpieces routinely sell for $400 or more. Is there something special and different about these pieces over a traditional 3C? Well... the answer I found out was YES! I am now offering this custom mouthpiece in my line for a lot of reasons but mostly because it sounds so great! It is a bit bigger all-around (as seen in the overlay) than the traditional 3C. For me it feels a smidge smaller than a 1-1/2C. I also put my MO backbore (smaller symphonic shaped) and a #26 throat in this mouthpiece. The sound shape is tremendous and rich.
Excellent accessories will take your performance to the next level:
The Denis Wick aluminum straight mute is a great place to start (or expand) your straight mute collection. This is one of the most widely used straight mutes on the market, with a classic straight mute sound.
A trumpet stand is essential for orchestral work, and if you're switching back and forth between Bb and C you'll want a secure place to set the horn you're not holding at the time. The Hercules stands are great; we use them to display instruments here at ACB!
Keeping your new C trumpet clean and well lubricated will keep you sounding your best. The Ultra Pure care kit has everything you need to keep your trumpet working smoothly.

Great Horn
This is my first C Trumpet and I’m very pleased with it. Fit and finish is excellent and it plays very nicely. Even better than the horn was the service from ACB. The video of Trent playing it prior to shipping it out. A very nice and unexpected touch. Well done!
