Product Description
Amazing condition! Pre-Owned Early Schagerl Raven Trumpet in 24KT Gold!
Isn't it stunning?
This horn just came into us via consignment and it's in wonderful condition. The valves feel fantastic. Have great action. As you can see the finish is in really wonderful shape overall. There are a few very minor pings on the bell bow otherwise it looks absolutely gorgeous.
This is an earlier version of the "Raweni" when it was still dubbed the "Raven" As you can see the bell is a bit more compact and it sounds a bit more cornet like.

James Morrison loved the sound and nimbleness of rotary valves, but he needed a trumpet with more power. A trumpet that he could play one handed for plunger work, quick mute changes, or doubling on trombone. Not finding what he needed, he decided to collaborate with Schagerl to design the Raweni, an innovative trumpet model that he now calls The Best of Both Worlds.
Schagerl has several incredible top action rotary valve trumpets to choose from; the Raweni has the closest feeling to a piston trumpet in terms of the valve actuation, making it an easy transition if you're used to more traditional designs. One thing you'll notice about the Raweni is how fluid and clean it sounds on faster lines. Check out the video demos below to hear the versatility in the Raweni's tone colors.
Here's what James Morrison has to say about the Raven:
"This is my new trumpet from Schagerl – although it looks a bit like a cornet, it is definitely a trumpet.
"The design comes from my wish to have a rotary valve instrument due to the different articulation you get compared to piston valves. I find the rotary sounds more precise and there is a smaller “dead spot” between when you push the valve and when the next note comes out clearly. This is particularly noticeable when playing quickly in the upper register (something I like to do).
"So if I want a rotary trumpet, why not just use one of the many Schagerl’s that already exist?
