Why This Trumpet Stands Out:
This instrument is incredible. The Power and resonance in this horn is unmatched and provides a full and rich sound profile. Those looking for a wonderful soloist sound look no further. From the most intimate pianos to the brassiest fortissimos, this horn has you covered anywhere in-between!
"This horn produces a full-bodied sound, complete with shiny overtones and remarkable warmth in all registers, at all dynamics. It’s ideal for soloists who prefer an oversized-bell horn and want the biggest trumpet sound possible.
We do not recommend this horn for Orchestral players or Lead players. The sound is simply too large to match conventional trumpets in a section.
-
Our M & M2 cups pair very well with this horn, adding shimmering fireworks, while the horn applies a filter of deep, saturated tone color.
This horn plays with great stability and agility, and gives you wings to musically go places you’d never even dare to venture with most oversized-bell horns."
BELL
Shape:
-
Large Taper
-
Bell diameter: 145mm (5.7")
Bell Material:
-
Stem: Copper
-
Flare: Phosphur Bronze
This bell has a large taper throughout, which makes it great for producing a broader sound.
The final flare diameter is quite oversized compared to common trumpets. This combined with the copper stem gives access to an incredibly wide range of tone colors, all with a wide projection.
LEADPIPE
Receiver:
-
Heavy-weight
-
Machined in Bronze
Leadpipe:
-
Heavy-weight
-
Machined in Yellow Brass
-
1.1mm (.043") wall thickness
Our leadpipes are machined from a solid rod, to the highest standard of accuracy. This is a rare and difficult manufacturing process, but it’s worth the extra effort — You get greater note stability and stronger projection.
TUNING SLIDES
Available with 3 Slide Options:
-
Yellow Brass – Most flexible note targets with a traditional sound
-
Phosphor Bronze – Gives more stability and a richer, fuller sound
-
Nickel Silver – Locks you into the notes and enhances brightness
The material of the tuning slide matters, a lot. It greatly affects the sound & feel of the horn. If you haven’t experienced this before, you’ll certainly will once you try them.
