Kanstul made French Besson .462 bore Najoom reverse lead pipe with medium heavy weight caps.Well used but no dents - just lacquer wear. Pistons greats, slides great - all move well as they should. The trumpet is used because it is a good/great trumpet.My opinion is that it mimics the Bach 37 (in case you are wondering what it sounds like) at a much cheaper price. Kanstul horns are Great
