History

Honed valves

The precise fit between valve casings and pistons after honing means no air leakage.

Pressure formed tubing

Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance.

Laser-fused pluzuma welded bell

A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell which allows continuous even vibrations.

Excellent response

Consistent intonation

Well-centered sound

Full and round sound

This provides a warm blend with the other instruments of the brass section.
