[TPIN] B&S Challenger Trumpets??

[Brendan Crise]

Charile,
I personally like these horns, they are basically Bach's but with German
manufacturing.  Mark Pender from the Conan O'Brian show plays on a B&S.
They make a solid quality product.

Folks,

Recently I was able to a B&S Challenger trumpet for about 30 minutes.
Other than knowing that they're are made in Europe, I don't know
anything thing about them.

Their web site is:

It played pretty well, particularly when I got E on the staff and above.
I'm curious on the opinion of this list is of them ??

I'm a comeback player who's been playing for 2 years after not touching
a horn for 27 years.  I'm playing on a student grade horn at the moment
(Getzen 390) and don't have much experience with Pro horns.

Thanks.

Charlie
