"I have played many horns as a professional
trumpet player - including horns of fellow players - and I
feel that the Gen X is the best horn out there today. From
the first
3 or 4 notes I played on it, I knew something was different
about this horn. It was not only the ease of playing it but
the sound is... just better. This horn makes it fun to play
trumpet. I play a variety of styles, including lead trumpet,
cornet solos, concertos, jazz, etc., and the Gen X allows me
to do
it all on one horn and have a great time doing it."
