The Getzen 490 Trumpets are ideal first upgrade level Trumpets, perhaps for someone moving on from a student model. They would also be an ideal option for any Cornet player switching over to Trumpet and wanting a long-term option for a low-cost.
This particular pre-owned example has some minor aesthetic wear to the external lacquer, but nothing outside ‘normal use’. Like all our pre-owned Trumpets it has been fully checked, set-up and serviced in our workshop prior to sale, ensuring you can buy with 100% confidence. USA made, the Getzen Company proudly employs specialist brass technicians and master craftsmen to ensure only the finest instruments bear the Getzen name.
Getzen 490 Trumpets are designed to provide musicians with the higher quality sound and performance they want without sacrificing the durability they need. 490 Trumpets have a standard first valve saddle, gold brass mouthpipe, and hand spun, seamless gold brass bell. This makes the 490 a warm sounding, free blowing trumpet for the player looking for a superior instrument at an exceptional value.
