Stagg WS-TR255S C trumpet incl. soft case

General

This Stagg C trumpet has all of the features you'd expect from a trumpet. You'll find, for instance, an adjustable third slide ring and a first slide saddle, so you can reach those high notes and keep them sounding perfectly balanced. Furthermore, you'll find a waterkey with a cork on the tuning slide so you can get rid of any built-up moisture for the best possible sound. Of course, the pistons are a key part of the trumpet, and it's important that they're in tip-top shape. That's why Stagg equipped this C trumped with stainless-steel pistons that require relatively little maintenance and that are easy to clean. This instrument has an 11.66mm bore and a 125mm bell, and is finished with a beautiful clear lacquer. To top it all off, Stagg offers this trumpet with a mouthpiece and a soft case. A C trumpet such as this one is perfect for advanced trumpet students on a budget who need a C trumpet for their studies.

C trumpet

If you were to completely unravel a Bb trumpet, its total length would amount to 131 cm. The C trumpet, on the other hand, has a shorter length of 116 cm, as it produces a higher tone. The shorter length of the C trumpet provides it with a brighter, more open sound than its Bb counterpart. Traditionally, classical music has always shown a preference for the C trumpet. In fact, it's seldom found in lighter music such as pop, latin, and jazz, which is why beginners always start out with a Bb model. Typically students won't get started with the C trumpet until they're ready to study classical music in a conservatory. Sometimes though, you can still find C trumpets being used in churches, as they combine nicely with an organ and a choice and the music doesn't have to be transposed. If you're looking for a beginner trumpet for starting out with lessons, then we recommend you check out the entry-level Bb model.
