NEW OLD STOCK S.E. Shires TRB B Model Custom Bb Trumpet

This is a demo model horn that has been taken to multiple trade shows. In MINT condition!

The Model B trumpet from S.E. Shires features a broad bell flare taper that produces a warm, open, round tone paired with agile and smooth articulation. The TRB is set up with a WH leadpipe that provides both stability and flexibility. The WH also has a relatively fast taper that adds brilliance to the warmth that the B bell brings. Brass balusters and valve caps contribute to the character to the sound, increase its core, and facilitate cleanness and immediacy of attack. Commercial, jazz, and classical players alike love the breadth and malleability of the Model B’s sound. The trumpet also features:

Bore: .459 inch
