Our Trial Program
Selecting a trumpet is a personal experience that requires time with the instruments. We make it easy to play instruments before you make a decision, offering in-store and out-of-store trials.
Please note: In accordance with CDC and MN Dept of Health guidelines, Schmitt Music has resumed in-store trials for all instrument categories. Instruments are sanitized after each demonstration. Contact us for an appointment or stop in to the store! We are also happy to schedule a phone or virtual consultation, or curate a selection of instruments and ship directly to you for in-home trial.
How it works
We will ship up to 2 trumpets to your home, so you can compare to your current instrument, bring them to a lesson, and truly get to know each instrument.
