CarolBrass Blackhawk Mini Pocket Trumpet
It is mini, looks fabulous, has the weight and feel of a full sized trumpet. Showed up for a local symphony practice, opened my Bach Strad trumpet case - no trumpet (it was sitting on its trumpet stand in our music room at home) I started to walk by the conductor with my empty case and realized I had the Mini Blackhawk in my car. Brought it in, sat down in my seat and the conductor walked by, saw the Mini and asked if it sounded like a real trumpet. AFTER our rehearsal he came back and complimented our three man trumpet section and added that he couldn't tell the difference with me using the Mini. The lack of a standard sized bell is it's only "shortcoming" - not quite the full resonant sound of a full sized trumpet. I need to play it more to loosen up the valves, but the valves and total instrument seem to be of high quality and construction.
