Lotus Solo Model Bb Trumpet
Lotus Solo Model Bb Trumpet
SKU:
BELL
Shape
Medium-Large Taper
Bell diameter: 140mm (5 ½")
Bell Material
Stem: Copper
Flare: Phosphor Bronze
This bell starts with a moderate taper (same as our Classic & Universal models) which greatly enhances stability and note targets, especially in the upper register. Then towards the end, the bell opens up and finishes with a large final diameter compared to standard trumpets, giving you a much fatter sound and wider projection.
The Copper bell stem helps produce a wide range of tone colors all the way from silky smooth to ferocious, while the Phosphor Bronze flare increases projection and adds richness to the sound.
Leadpipe
Receiver:
Medium-weight
Machined in Bronze
Leadpipe:
Medium-weight
Machined in Brass 0.9mm (.035") 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
Comes with 3 Tuning 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.
