Yamaha YTR8335G Xeno Professional Trumpet

These are trumpets that inspire. Their outstanding power and projection combines with refined resistance and response for extraordinary tonal flexibility. Xeno trumpets continue to evolve with the artists who play them, towards the ultimate goal of ideal musical expression. Features A new bell design contributes to optimum resistance for a powerful tonal core. The new design also enhances playability in the upper register. Thinner valvecasing and pistons, as well as the modified angle of the branch tube (knuckle), result in improved response and provide the performer with an ideal blowing resistance. The button on the 1st slide is to fine-tune the blowing resistance for better control. The height of the main slide water key gutter has been increased for optimum resistance, and the ends of the water key spring have been curled for improved response.
