OCR200 Debut 'Bb' Cornet Outfit with Deluxe Case & Accessory Kit - Instrument with Gold Lacquered Brass Body and Nickel Silver Valves - Ideal for Beginners and Professionals

This is a lovely instrument. I am intending to try and teach myself to play, as I've wanted to learn for years. I didn't want to spend out on a beans new one, in case I fail miserably. However, this one is as good as new, for half of the price.The service was excellent, and it arrived within 2 days, well ahead of schedule. I can't fault this purchase, excellent all round.

Didn't have the blow to play it. Saxophone is easier.

I used to play the cornet in my youth and recently decided to take up playing again as a hobby at the grand old age of 52. This cornet is excellent for the price. It plays a very clear, bright note and is well crafted. With the rose brass lead pipe it is also a very attractive instrument. I am so pleased with it that I find myself playing almost every day, as it makes such a lovely sound. I can strongly recommend it as a good quality beginner / intermediate instrument, or for someone like me who is returning to playing after many years.

I used to play in a Brass Band, but had to give up due to being diagnosed with Parkinson Disease. I spoke to the Hospital Physiotherapist and as a result purchased the Cornet with a view to maintaining better control of lips. I have fouond that the Cornet has been a help.

I PURCHASED THIS FOR MY 15YR SON WHO HAS JUST JOINED A TRAINING BRASS BAND.WAS PLEASED WITH SPEED OF DELIVERY AND QUALITY OF CORNET WELL WORTH THE MONEY WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND

As described very pleased

OK for younger children just learning to play, but not up to concert standard. I find this instrument harder to play nice round tuneful notes than a higher value instrument. Makes for an impressive and shiney toy, but not for a serious player.
