This newest addition to the Plastic Brass family, from the makers of the world-renowned pBone and pTrumpet, will be a hit for novice and professional players alike! Shaped like a traditional 'Shepherd's Crook' style Bb Cornet, this lightweight and easy to hold instrument is ideal for the beginner player of any age. The eye-catching, fantastic bright finish makes it appealing to all ages and has proved unbelievably popular in schools around the UK and Europe. You may like to begin with the pCornet and choose to move onto the traditional brass cornet. Supplied with a lightweight carry bag and two plastic Denis Wick mouthpieces (2B and 4B), you have everything you need to really take off on your musical journey. A completely unique plastic valve system has been developed for the pCornet, featuring interchangeable valves which make maintaining the instrument quick and simple, even for inexperienced players. The patented leadpipe design helps to produce a mellow cornet sound while remaining incredibly robust and lightweight. The main, third and first valve slides of the pCornet are fully adjustable to aid tuning. The lightweight design helps younger players to start on the instrument without worrying about the weight and balance of a heavy brass instrument. The ergonomic shape promotes good posture and correct hand positioning allowing hands of all shapes and sizes find a comfortable grip on the instrument. The pCornet is also very reasonably priced - perfect as starter instrument or a second practice instrument for advanced and professional players to take with them anywhere! The ABS plastic used to make the pCornet is incredibly tough. Though not completely indestructible, it's the most robust and durable cornet ever made - it certainly won't dent or ding due to knocks and bumps like brass. The pCornet incorporates anti-microbial technology from BioCote, providing the highest standard of protection.
