Brand new Van Laar B4 Bb trumpet in polished raw brass, made in the Netherlands. Modeled on a Mt. Vernon-era Bach 37, this horn plays slightly more open than most Bachs and has an extremely resonant sound. Plays more in tune than 99% of trumpets out there, and the valves are some of the smoothest in the business. Comes with care kit, no case.

FROM VAN LAAR:
The B4 was developed on the basis of the Bach Mount Vernon trumpet. Fundamental to the rich sound is a standard bell with a normal-weight valve cluster. Unlike the original instrument, the B4 is distinguished by its improved slotting and lighter intonation. This is a reliable all-rounder for all kinds of music-making.
