Yamaha TR-4335GSIIC Intermediate Silver Trumpet Review

I bought this as replacement of Bach Prelude TR700 Trumpet is Selmer's entry level student trumpet which cost me $200 and it was from china.

But after receiving I was surprised that this Yamaha TR4335GSII is also made in China and I paid 7 times the money.!!! I was under impression that it will be from Japan as I am paying more money but that was not the case.

Overall trumpet plays good but I was not happy with finishing of this as there was some issue with bottom value cap finishing which was different color.

I learned lesson that before buy make sure where it is made because I found no information about this on web or on yamaha website.

A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell, which allows continuous even vibrations. This trombone comes complete with a mouthpiece and case.

Yamaha YBL620G Professional Bass Trombone Review

I played bass trombone in my high school jazz band and this is the trombone I used. It is a wonderful trombone and I never had any problems with it. The slide is very smooth even after not being played over the summer. The second trigger is adjustable for those of us with smaller hands. It gives off a nice tone in the low ranges and sounds only slightly pinched when using both triggers. This trombone is slightly larger than a standard f attachment trombone with the bell being especially larger allowing for better tonality on the low notes. I much prefer this trombone to my own Bach f attachment which has had so many maintenance issues unlike this trombone which is still in immaculate condition despite being a school instrument. A great sturdy trombone with nice tone, I highly recommend it to any bass trombonist.

Yamaha YDP-S31 Arius Console Piano 886830031687 Review

didn't wanna spend too much on one of these so settled on this one, from Kraft Music in WI. I recommend those guys, very cool and knowledgeable (got mine for under 800 bucks--free shipping--and comes with the cabinet and pedals). the external speaker sound isn't exactly like a grand, maybe an upright, but sounds good; and if you put on some headphones you'd swear you were playing a fine acoustic piano. the action is very close to a piano (cool design, it's a beautiful thing, looks great against the wall). my 7 year old daughter loves practicing on it. (Kraft salesman recommends a surge protector). worth every penny!

Yamaha YMP-204M Series Marching F Mellophone Silver Review

I am in the Pride of the Southland Marching Band at the University of Tennessee and I play the mellophone. We use this exact same model and all I can say is it gets the job done. It is not balanced very well because of the weight of the bell, but it has a pretty good tone quality overall.

Yamaha YSL-882O Xeno Series F Attachment Trombone Lacquer Gold Brass Bell Review

Trombones that look and feel and sound like this one are difficult to find. Let's look at everything individually.

LOOK
----
The trombone looks solid. Its sturdy and resists dings and water spotting quite well (compared to my old horn, anyway). There's a few different metals used here. You can notice up close, but I can't tell too much from far away. The bell's metal is a little different in order to provide better sound quality.

I didn't purchase mine from Amazon, so I can't give the exact optional contents. Mine came with everything I need. But if yours doesn't come with everything, I'd recommend getting a microfiber and a polishing cloth to keep it in prestine condition.

FEEL
----
With some high quality lube, the slide nearly bolts out of your hand like a negative-friction physics anamoly. You'll hit notes faster and cleaner than you can with a lesser horn.

The F-attachment's trigger is my only complaint with this horn. Mine occasionally sticks to this day. I've learned to hook my thumb around it and pull back to close it. I fear I may be using too much lubricant in combination with not getting it cleaned out enough, so you might not have the same problem. After a fresh cleaning, it tends to work fine with no problems for quite some time.

If you are used to a smaller bore instrument, practice with this horn a while before you play it because it requires more wind and a few different muscles.

After you've excelled with this horn, you'll sound crystal clear with it. And if you have a smaller bore marching horn, you'll sound even better with that with your increased air capacity.

SOUND
-----
I have yet to hear a horn that I like better. I'm sure they're out there. But I was not in the least disappointed with what this horn could produce.

On some horns, you may notice a frequency that causes the horn to twang (my old yamaha marching horn was low C -- TWANNNNNGGG!). I can't find a single note on this horn that gives that effect.

You'll notice an improved range on this horn if you're moving from a standard tenor trombone. The F-attachment will give you some lower notes and the larger bore will help you play them. The down-side is that you'll have to work up your upper registers again. I could hit an A regularly with my old horn, but even a G was a bit iffy once I got it. I was able to work my way back up with a few months of practice.

OVERALL
-------
I really enjoyed this horn. I've never gone to another since. However, I think you'd do yourself a disservice if don't go to a local music store and try some horns out for yourself with a professional. You may notice something on another horn that you like better. Or you might find a better price (admittedly, this price is very price-competitive).

If you're not in a location with a professional music store and you have the money and the desire to get a top-grade trombone, then I think you'd have a safe bet with this one.
