This is a top-of-the-line flugelhorn from Manchester Brass; an affordable professional-grade horn made entirely in their factory in Taiwan! This is an excellent option for the player who needs a horn that can play with the best, but at a very reasonable price. Check out the customer reviews below, like these:
"I've played flugels much more expensive, but this one just blows me away. It's like if you had a really good old Couesnon from the 60's that had super intonation and everything working perfectly. I'm a pro jazzer and play flugel a good deal. This one is very responsive to mouthpiece changes. I'm just getting ready to go to my gig tonight where I will be playing it, pretty much, the whole night at a fancy steakhouse. I have a [mouthpiece] holder on my belt and I'll have 3 or 4 flugel pieces in there of different depths depending on how loud the volume gets through the night. Seriously guys, this flugel is a 'diamond in the rough'!" -Lex
"Purchased this flugel from ACB about 8 months ago. My situation is that I use a flugel on only about 25% of my gigs, so I simply don’t want to spend 2-3k on a flugelhorn. This horn is a perfect choice, it plays as well as any flugel I have owned in the past (including Yamaha), and it’s priced very reasonably, especially considering the quality. Plus, you get the usual tremendous customer service from Josh and the rest of the guys at ACB!" -Brad
