Description

Throughout the late 80's and 90's it was hard to find a better trumpet than one made by Zig Kanstul. Kanstul trumpets were produced in a factory in Anaheim California from 1981 until 2020, 4 years after Zig's death. This particular trumpet is NEW/OLD stock and is from the early 2000's, when these were in their heyday. Some of the artists who have performed on these instruments include Arturo Sandoval, Wallace Roney, Wayne Bergerone, Claudio Roditi and many others. A rare opportunity to pick one of these up in this condition.
