Good for trumpeters, too. I spent an enjoyable afternoon there watching my
middle son try out trumpets till he found one he fell in love with. The
staff was patient and accommodating. I called ahead and they had a number of
models ready for him to try out when we got there. The stores in my area had
little stock, mostly student or intermediate trumpets at full list - the 6
hour drive each way to Chicago is worth it to me.

He walked out with a Besson Meha, in case you're wondering :^)
