Good trumpet and mouthpiece for High School?

I am going into High School, and I need a trumpet. My current instrument is a Yamaha Bb trumpet. it is too old to be able to tell what model it is. I have heard good things about the Bach Strad. I'm not sure and could use some recomendations and approximate prices on trumpets and mouthpieces. I am going to be in marching band and of course i would also like to make all-region plz help! Thank you!

Crap...I wish I could help you...my fiance has been playing the trumpet for over 20 years. But, he's not here and I can't ask him because he's out of town at a gig. Good luck though.





Also...this is VERY important! Most people who give trumpet lessons teach the wrong method! I can't stress this enough...you need to learn the correct embouchure





Who created the best method to use:

Please at least check this out. I know it sounds kind of expensive, but it is an investment...and in your music, there could not be a greater investment.
