If you want to see and hear the eagerly anticipated ptrumpet in action now is the chance...

If you want to find out more about the much anticipated launch of the plastic pTrumpet then the makers have launched a video to show it in action.

Unveiled

The instrument was unveiled back in January at NAMM – the huge North American Music fayre by Warwick Music, the makers of the world famous pBone trombone, and it has already created a huge fan base and immense customer response from around the world.

Now you can see the evidence of the instrument in action after the pTrumpet team responded with this fantastic video, which showcases the capabilities of what is being heralded as the most playable plastic trumpet on the planet.

Refine and perfect

There are of course competitor plastic trumpets available, and although the pTrumpet might be later to market than others, the developers are confident it will be worth the wait – as they say they have taken the opportunity to refine and perfect the instrument.

Right price

4BR has been promised the chance to get our hands on one of the very first instruments to come to the UK to see what we think of it, but if this video is anything to go by, then look out, as it is always rumoured to be very competitively priced.
