Why did the SOUND of a few select vintage trumpets surpass all modern trumpets? I needed to know the answer!
In 2003, after retiring from my trumpet manufacturing business, I began a new challenge: to uncover the hidden secrets of the greatest vintage horns. This was a very exciting 5 year project - buying, testing, tearing apart, and analyzing 75 of finest trumpets ever made. Gradually, I began to fully understand the intricate details that distinguished the few truly superior trumpets. The result the Callet SIMA.
The beautiful sound of the worlds greatest trumpets has returned!
I gave my mothers name, Sima, to this new design. And, I am thrilled to report that the initial response to the SIMA has surpassed my highest expectations. Im overjoyed by the number of wonderful classical, jazz, and pop performers around the world who have so quickly made the SIMA their #1 choice.
We have had trouble keeping the SIMA in stock. But, a new batch just arrived silver and gold! Please call me now so I can reserve one for you. It is my great pleasure to share the beauty of a SIMA.

I played the SIMA the last 2 nights with Donny & Marie in their show at the Flamingo. The SIMA is incredibly responsive. Intonation is superb. Overall, a lot of enjoyment playing the horn. Moreover, even though I've only played the horn 4 days, little adjustment is required. The sound of the SIMA is pure with centered core, focus, and brilliance. It is my opinion that the horn is going to help in all areas deficient in ones playing. I absolutely love the SIMA!! Jerome, thank you so much for your dedication, passion, and love of the trumpet & trumpet students.
