Description: This listing is for a silver plated 2017 Cannonball Artist Series model 42-C professional C trumpet made by Kanstul in Anaheim, CA, and then tweaked and customized by a professional trumpet player at Cannonball in Salt Lake City, UT, that is in MINT CONDITION! This All-American made C trumpet includes a choice of a single or double Cannonball hard-shell trumpet case (choose one of the two case options that are shown in the photos). A Cannonball trumpet mouthpiece is also included. This professional 42-C trumpet looks and sounds AMAZING! With its excellent slotting and intonation, it plays on pitch almost effortlessly. Everything functions perfectly! There are only a few tiny insignificant blemishes that are barely noticeable, so be sure to zoom in and examine all of the photos before purchase. The fit and finish of this Kanstul made Cannonball trumpet is very impressive! It is definitely one of the best professional C trumpets that you can buy for this price (and they aren’t even able to be made anymore since Kanstul permanently closed its doors several years ago). This pro C trumpet plays like a dream with the perfect amount of back-pressure due to its medium-large (ML) bore size. The following information is from Cannonball’s website. Model 42 Professional Trumpet: The 42 Cannonball® Artist Series professional B♭ and C trumpets have a response which is uniquely effortless, while maintaining a strong core to the sound. The 42 slots well, and is fluid and rich. While designed as a symphonic trumpet, both the 42 B♭ and 42 C include two tuning slides to cater to differing players’ needs: one semi-round, and one square. The 42 Artist Series exhibits a unique balance between impeccable response, stability of feel, and core of sound. It has outstanding intonation and a rich tone. ONE PIECE HAND-HAMMERED BELL: Our 42 Artist Series bell is meticulously hand-smoothed and evened for unparalleled focus and resonance. MONEL PISTONS: Cannonball trumpets feature monel piston valves. Monel is a malleable metal alloy that ensures smooth and long-lasting action. On a microscopic level, the cylindrical surface of the monel piston is continuously optimized with every stroke to insure a proper, tight fit and alignment with its casing. Monel resisis pitting and corrosion so you won't have to have your valves replated. The metal also retains the valve oil longer than other leading materials. MEDIUM-LARGE BORE: We searched for the perfect bore size to facilitate a great air column. Even though the bore is technically Medium-Large, there are variations in the tube diameter across the instrument which create a comfortable degree of resistance as well as aligning pitch for great slotting. FEATURES: * Bell diameter is 4.875" (125mm) * Medium Large Bore: 460" (11.68mm) * Straight Resonance Bracing * Resonance rings strategically placed to enhance overtones * One-Piece Hand-Hammered Bell * Monel Pistons * Boxed Bronze Springs * 3rd Valve Slide Stopper * Heavy-Wall Resonance Receiver * Thin Profile Valve Caps * Choice of a Beautiful Single or Double Hard-Shell Trumpet Case (choose one of the two case options as shown in photos) * Acoustically Customized and Adjusted by a Professional * Includes Cannonball mouthpiece Recommendation by trumpet.gallery: Proper care and maintenance include applying valve oil and slide grease on a regular basis. I recommend using valve oil before every use for optimal performance and longevity. I am Joe Bolton (trumpet.gallery). I personally tested and cleaned this instrument. I hereby certify that it is fully functional with excellent fit, finish, and tone quality!
