My buddy really hooked me up. Got it almost for cost.

It's a secondhand Yamaha.
$900 brand new and let's say I spent less than half that on the instrument + extras.
I have to get my mouth used to the motions again, haven't played since 2018.

I'm really excited though, as my old trumpet (lasted me from 2005 to 2018) was a no name thing full of rust and dents from a pawn shop.

I'll have pics in a little bit, I'm just at work now.

No, thank God.

It can sound like one if I play a Low E flat.

I won't be playing full pieces for a bit.
The knowledge is there, but the muscle memory is reap rusty.
Give it a couple weeks and I'll be back to at least close to how I was.

That's a ways off tbh. That long of not playing there's a lot I need to relearn physically.

Yamaha mouthpiece, 11b4.
Just standard, nothing special.
Once I've got the basics down again I'll look into other mouth pieces.

I really want to get back to where I was. I mean, my band (concert band) won a Disney competition.
I got to play in the Disney studio, with the Disney Composer teaching us. It was wild!

It really is.
As much as I went through with that trumpet, it wasn't even a learner trumpet.
It's the one you see at a pawn shop and think "Wow. That's....it exists."
Now I've got a Yamaha ytr2330.
While not a "nice" trumpet, it's way nicer than what I'm used to.

Nice! Yamaha makes some good horns. They find the best and copy it and produce consistent quality products. At least they used to, back in the last century. I dont really follow manufacturers anymore.

If your interested this is the piece I've decided to start with to get my chops back.
https://youtu.be/fn3jsJ8yIpk

Lots of rhythm, difficult fingerings, plenty of flats.

Only problem is I'm practicing in a townhouse, so I can't really belt the way I wish I could.
Gonna be hard to get my sound back without being able to let loose.
And I'm playing at half speed too.
