BELL

Shape:  

  • Standard-sized taper

  • Bell diameter: 130mm (5.12")

Stem:  Yellow Brass  

Flare:  Phosphor Bronze

The Universal produces a surprisingly warm and full-bodied sound for its size, thanks to the slightly thicker bell and its phosphor-bronze flare.  The bell is 0,1 mm thicker compared to its brighter and more traditional sounding cousin, the Classic.  The bell shape is inspired by the 37, but we’ve worked our magic on the taper and optimized the intonation.​


Leadpipe

Receiver:

  • Light-weight

  • Machined in Bronze

Leadpipe:

  • Light-weight

  • Machined in Brass

  • 0.6mm (.024") 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.
