If you're a trumpet player, then there's a very good chance that you're familiar with the cornet as well. The reason is because cornets and trumpets share a lot of similarities; the main difference between the two is that cornets are smaller in size, which makes them easier to play for beginners. For this reason, many music teachers recommend that younger brass instrument enthusiasts take up the cornet instead of the trumpet, and thankfully you'll discover a wide variety of student Bb cornets on today's market.

To get a better idea of the kind of tone characteristics each of these cornets produce, you'll definitely benefit from taking a closer look at each model, but ultimately the right one for you will be a matter of personal tastes and how much you're willing to spend. If you're looking for a student Bb cornet in the $750-$100 price range, check out the Kanstul 730 Series Bb Cornet. This model comes in your choice of silver or lacquer finishes, features a .470" bore and a long body designed for easy playing and tone production.

Yamaha is another company that's trusted for their student Bb cornets and they have more than one option here. Need a suggestion? Go with the Yamaha YCR-2330II Series Bb Cornet: it delivers a rich and dark tone and boasts a .460" bore with a shepherds crook. This beauty also offers amazing projection and response thanks to its 4.75" bell. The YCR-2330II even comes with a durable wood-shell case, overall making this option a near-steal for any aspiring cornet player.

No matter where you are in your musical journey, you deserve to play an instrument that only highlights your strongest playing traits. However, saying that especially applies to beginners because they need that extra level of confidence to continue honing their skills for many years to come. Of course, the student Bb cornets in this section are designed by experts who understand that, so be sure to explore the rest of your choices in addition to the models mentioned above.
