If you are looking for a lightweight commercial sounding horn for Jazz etc - look no further than this model of instrument from Carol Brass.
These horns are probably the #1 selling horn in the line from Carol Brass and deliver quite a punch in such a small package.
Don't take our word for it.
Here's what professional Peter Uppmann had to say about this model of horn:
"Have been playing on this Carol 500T (old model number) Lightweight trumpet for a few weeks now and am over the honeymoon period, and this horn still leaves me saying, "WOW"! Have owned some really great trumpets over the years and have been seeking a commercial sounding trumpet, ala Calicchio or Shilke, for a long time, yet couldn't really get one of these past the wife. The Carol 500T is every bit as good if not better then any other horns I've ever experienced, not just; "great horn, plays well" but "Wow, this trumpet responds fantastically for me"! I can't imagine the valves being any better on any horn, intonation superb, with such a 'zing' and core to the sound without being harsh or thin. Yes, this is a commercial, bright-sounding horn but the response is unbelievable! You can tell I love this thing can't you? BTW, I love the Ingram model but this trumpet (for me), responds way better.
All the best... Peter Uppman ___Melbourne, Australia"
