Why choose Yamaha Brass & Woodwind Instruments?

Why Choose Yamaha?

As a professional trumpet player for many years, I have looked and played a whole raft of makes and models of trumpet, from the student entry level to the latest and greatest custom designs and after using Bach trumpets for years, why did I decide to change to Yamaha?The simple answer is consistency and quality right across the range, I like the fact that Yamaha didn’t just start at the basic model and try to improve, but rather they start at the top, employing the talents of world renowned musicians to develop the best instrument for their needs and then adapting that instrument for the lower end of the market without losing quality.
