With my C trumpet, I started from my Bb to scale down to a C. The bell is the same as my Bb. The throat is larger, like a Bb trumpet, and not like many current production C trumpets of most companies. The throat of the bell makes the instrument sound more like a Bb and a little less like some other conceptions of a C trumpet. However, the tuning is much improved and less alternate fingerings are needed to play the instrument in tune! Many players feel the instruments are more favored for Chamber music, solo playing, or depending on what the section is playing a fine Orchestral C.
