Written on: 24/12/2009

I own a 1971 model of this trumpet. The instrument has gigged incessantly over the past 30 odd years and all without problems. The trumpet I have has a silver plate finish and tends to give a warmer tone than the laquered type. The valve action is absolutely phenomenal. The only problem which has arisen is that I now compare the valve actions when I play other instruments. Nothing comes close to having what I have, and are used to performing with! (read more)

This is an excellent quality horn, built to last, has excellent intonation, sound, projection, tone color/quality is rich and warm, and is easy to blow. Again, although it is marketed as a student horn, it is far more than comparable companies' student horn line. Other companies that give the Getzen a run for its money are 1) Kanstul (700), 2) Bach (TR-300), and 3) Yamaha's 2xxx trumpet. You also find used Olds Ambassadors, many of which were made by the company with Zigmant Kanstul himself... (read more)

Great beginner horn. I got mine from a neighbor for a great deal. The valves are smooth and the horn is fairly easy to play. Overall, a pretty good student horn. (read more)
