I have never tried a trumpet and want to try one, but I don't want to spend a lot of money to try it to realize I don't like it.... what is a good entry level trumpet call that people on here would recommend to try it? Is there even such a thing?

Entry level price is different for some people. Matt Mclain makes a reasonable priced trumpet.Ralph Permar makes a Classic model that's $125.00. Once in awhile on here a Battey Wildtalker will come up for sale for around $125.00..Thats just a few I've had luck and experience with.
If you find out a trumpet is not for you for some reason these usually seem to sell easy on O.G.

If you invest in a good quality call and decide you don't like it you will have NO PROBLEM selling

Takes a lot of practice.........

noisy box call that seems to sound like a flock of juvenile hens pecking their way through a wheat field

Brian Mero makes a very easy playing good sounding trumpet for a good price.

Daryal Gosey  (Ncbowjunkie on here) makes a nice trumpet at a very reasonable price.

So tired of hearing the phrase (beginners trumpet) its either a good call or its not. Price isnt a factor w/ me. Mike

X2....I think asking for entry level is a person asking for something that is proven,but wont break the bank is my interpretation.

Great advice, a quality trumpet will also lessen the learning curve. Not all trumpets are the same.

I can make a field grade call for $100. I have sold calls for $2000. a far as play ability they are exactly the same call as the internals are the same on everything I sell, its just what its made of and the time in making.

It really comes down to what a person wants to spend and availability. I have several from different makers and different price ranges. They all have slight differences but basically play the same. Everyone that I have and if it was the only one I had I would be happy with them all. I think they will all kill turkeys . I don't think you have to spend a bunch of money to get a trumpet that will kill turkeys.
