Pre-Owned Yamaha YTR-4335GS Intermediate Bb Trumpet - Silver Plated with Gold Brass Bell
We’ve got THE step-up trumpet on the bench today! The Yamaha YTR-4335GS is widely regarded by band directors and private instructors as the premier intermediate trumpet on the market. It bridges the gap between student reliability and professional performance by incorporating high-end design elements straight from Yamaha’s pro line.
The magic of the "GS" designation lies in its gold brass bell ("G") paired with a durable silver-plated finish ("S"). Gold brass contains a higher copper content than standard yellow brass, yielding a warmer, broader, and more complex harmonic core. The silver plating adds crystalline brilliance and immediate projection, giving advancing players a versatile sound that blends beautifully in concert band while cutting through in jazz or marching settings.
Carrying serial number 569341, this instrument is in great shape with bright, clean silver plating and minimal signs of gentle previous use. It has received a full bench workup from our repair team, plays cleanly top-to-bottom, and comes complete in a Yamaha hardshell case.
