    Description

    Here is a Virtu USA Silver trumpet. Probably you've never heard of it.  A little searching says that these were made by Kanstul. However, to me, this doesn't have the characteristics of a Kanstul trumpet. I think there were two trumpets that were sold as "Virtu USA" brand to schools. The standard student trumpets were most likely made by Kanstul, but these intermediate ones were made by Blessing (USA).  This one is clearly a copy of a King Silver Flair design, which is also an intermediate trumpet.
    This trumpet is a good solid horn, and feels much like a Silver Flair. It has two dings in the bell, otherwise I don't see any other problems with it. Valves are fast, and slides are smooth. Valves have very good compression. It has just been cleaned and checked, and is ready to play.  It comes with a Bach 3C mouthpiece, and an excellent Yamaha trumpet case (it does have a couple blemishes, but it's solid.)
