Thomann TR 200 Bb-Trumpet

I always wanted to start to play the trumpet, but everyone suggested to buy something at least more than 600 euros. But I didn't want, because I didn't know if I'm liking it or not. So I checked everywhere, and then I found Thomann and they offered this instrument for a very low price so that was it, I bought it.
It arrived with an amazing case and some oil. The instrument is very clean and shiny. It feels high quality, well-built thing. The polishing is perfect, the mouthpiece too.
All valves works perfectly, everything is well lubricated. It can be adjusted easily and everything closes well.
Positives:
Great price
Feels high quality, well-built
Looks amazing, perfect polishing
The case is wonderful and it had everything needed to start playing and for basic maintenance
Negatives (kind of):
The sound could be better, but really for this price?
I tried some more expensive ones too and they had a bit better valves, but come on, they were 4-6 times more expensive
So all in all it is an amazing instrument and it definitely worth the price! The negatives are not real negatives, because it is true only if you compare it to a more expensive instrument, so it is normal.
The price is unbeatable and for it the quality is outstanding! Buy it! It is a great starting instrument. When I started to play, I rented instruments from the school and they were dirty and the buttons stuck all the time, it was a mess! It is much better to have your own instrument and for this price you can afford it and it is miles better than the ones you can rent.

We bought this over the summer for my son to start 6th grade band on. They were very specific on this brands they recommend (Yamaha and Bach) and to stay away from "off-brand" instruments. Still, I trusted my instincts and bought the Thomann. No regrets. I even asked my son, who has now played on his friends rented instruments, and he says there is no discernable difference between his Thomann and their trumpets. The case, while not a "hardcase", is more than adequate. He dropped the trumpet (not in the case) on the floor (I knew he would, which is another reason I didn't want to rent one) and it held up fine with just two small dents that do not affect performance at all. This was a good purchase and while eventually he may want something fancy, we will be able to recoul much of what we paid for this and apply it to a more expensive trumpet n the future if he decides to stick with it into high school.

Very good price/quality report!!

I love instruments and I never learned any wind instruments, so I wanted to start on a cheap instrument but with a correct sound. The cost of this trumpet was totally affordable so I took a shot. I didn't saw it at first that it also comes with a protection case!! At first, when i started to use it , it was difficult to make a sound (normal for a guy that never learned this type of instrument). After several weeks i started to make great sound with it. It s not the best trumpet of the century but I think it s a really cool instrument to start with. Great sound , nice and cheap!

My advice is to take the instrument with Trumpet mute to avoid noise for the neighbors (like the Denis Wick DW5526 Trumpet Practice Mute available on thomann).

Bought this for kid, the most important parts in my view the valves are always reliable. You don’t need to oil it frequently as it rarely gets stucked. It seems the lacquer finishing unlike the Thoman cornet is more firm and last longer as I haven’t experienced wear even after used of at least a year. Equally importantly I can reach higher notes with much ease and endurance. The only setback is if you are used to a Yamaha which is more mellow/dark sounding, you will find this to be a bit bright as if made of thin material. However I used this one for rough gigs, e.g when playing with too many brass players and at funerals with lots of wind/dust, no problem!
