There is a fantastic opportunity to get your hands on the brilliant tromba trumpet in time for Christmas at Band Supplies.

Fantastic

Band Supplies have just taken stocks of the fantastic plastic tromba trumpets, and the first batch has already been snapped up off the shelves. Santa has supplied new stock though, so now’s your chance to drop one in the stocking of someone you love on Christmas Eve!

Leeds Band Supplies Manager Chris Tudball told 4BR: “The tromba trumpets are a fantastic learner instrument but because they play so well."

Plays and sounds like a trumpet

He added: "The lightweight plastic design makes it incredibly comfortable to hold and play, but with the addition of metal valves it plays and sounds like a trumpet should.

Every tromba trumpet which hits the shelves is tested and checked by Nigel Lawless of the Korg group, so you know it’s going to perform superbly from the outset.”

The trumpets come in red, yellow, blue, white and black and are priced at £139.00 including a gig bag and trumpet standBand Supplies

Colours

The trumpets come in red, yellow, blue, white and black and are priced at £139.00 including a gig bag and trumpet stand.
