Recently traded trumpets available for purchase: We do not sell horns with known problems unless the problems are announced upfront. All of our used horns are trade-ins on new Callet SIMA trumpets. Most have been owned by professionals so they've been properly cared for. We don't service the horns, but we look them over and play them before moving them on at good prices "as is". Sorry, we do not take trades towards used trumpets.
