ACB Doubler's Flugelhorn (with your choice of finish!) 

 

Austin Custom Brass has created an exciting line of high quality, budget-friendly custom instruments designed for doubling. If you want to play flugelhorn but can't justify paying top dollar for a brand-name instrument our Doubler's flugelhorn was created with your needs in mind. The 'Doubler' name is meant to for our series of horn that are a high quality and consistent and designed to be at a price point for people who need a professional horn but do not play one regularly enough to justify an investment of the sort you’d need for many of the pro quality horns on the market. This series gives people the opportunity to “double” on another horn without breaking the bank and without sacrificing quality.

 

The ACB Doubler’s flugelhorn is a high quality, professional instrument that performs above and beyond its affordable price point. This instrument was initially designed for professional players who needed to double on flugelhorn occasionally. That meant we had to focus on reliability, consistency, and of course a great sound!

But this isn’t just a great flugel for the jazz soloist or commercial musician.

The Doubler’s flugel is being used by everyone from hobbyist comeback players who just want to relax after work to full-time symphony players who only need a flugel a couple times per year. You’ll find the Doubler’s flugelhorn in British-style brass bands, big band sections, pit orchestras, church groups, and brass quintets.

You might not need a $3,000 flugelhorn, but that shouldn’t keep you from having a great playing, great sounding horn. The Doubler’s is the best value flugelhorn you can find! You will not find another inexpensive flugel with as many optimizations.

Join the thousands of players across the world who are already enjoying their ACB Doubler’s flugelhorns!

 

 

We perform a few custom alterations before we ship it to you, including a precision valve alignment, custom spring adjustment, a new leadpipe, extensive play-testing, and more. We spend at least 2 hours per horn adjusting and play-testing! The result is an incredible flugelhorn for a supremely great price!

 

Here's a review from one of our customers Mark Russo (3/28/19):

"Trent and the ACB Squad have done it again..... a 3 run Homer in the bottom of the 9th!  I’ve been an ACB client since the beginning and this is my second Doubler.  I can’t say enough good stuff about this horn!  It has a smooth, even tone over the whole horn. Intonation is pretty good and it blends and cuts enough in a section to get over the band and It’s very comfortable going between this and my Bb.  You won’t find a better horn for the price point.  Bravissimo ACB!!” 

 

 

 

The ACB Doubler’s line is made by a great factory that we work with in China. The Doubler’s instruments are built to our specifications, then optimized here at our Kansas City shop before we ship them to you. The Doubler’s flugelhorn is designed to make it easy to switch between flugel and your trumpet or cornet.

We went with a 6-inch diameter bell, copper bell bow, and a classic .413-inch bore. The result is a flugel with great slotting and intonation, and a sound our customers describe as fat, mellow, smoky, smooth, and warm.

We align the valves on every Doubler’s flugel prior to shipment with durable synthetic pads. We also do a full ultrasonic cleaning, adjust the springs, and perform several other optimizations. Finally, each horn is play-tested to make sure that when you open the box, your new flugel is ready to go.

ACB Fabrication 5 Flugel Mouthpiece!

After many clients, educators, students, and fans of ACB asked for a great introductory mouthpiece option for folks on a budget, we are extremely proud to produce these ACB Fabrication 5 Series Flugelhorn Mouthpieces. 

The Fabrication series flugelhorn mouthpiece is an ideal upgrade for our ACB doubler's flugelhorns and anyone looking for a high quality flugelhorn mouthpiece at a fair price. We took our popular 3CS mouthpiece rim, and modified the cup depth accordingly for most players. The shank size is our large shank taper.
