Manchester Brass

$1,400.00

"I looked high and wide for a trumpet in the 1000-3500 price range. I listened to umpteen videos of various trumpets including the Yamaha Xeno, Bach Strad, Schilke, Kanstul, Jupiter, Getzen Eterna, etc.... The sound of the Manchester RL-GB at that price was a no brainer. And it sounds as great as it did on the video. For a beginner like me, that is really saying something!" -Liz Dinsmoor

Manchester Brass RLGB Trumpet:

 

(Trent plays one when he doesn't use his Adams)

 

 

 

 

We are so pleased with the fantastic success of the Manchester Brass line we asked our manufacturer to make us a complete custom model. This is an AMAZING playing instrument, perhaps the best playing trumpet you will find at this price on the market. Some key features:

 

  • Reversed leadpipe
  • Light weight, large flare (think Bach 72) 5 inch bell in gold brass
  • Nickel trim
  • Nickel Inner slides
  • Stainless steel valves
  • .460 ML bore
  • Deluxe carry bag with backpack straps
  • ACB PVA

 

This horn has an absolutely huge Sound profile and tons of versatility (recording clips below).

 

I can't begin to tell you how excited we are for this launch. This horn, I believe, could easily sell for $1500-1700 but that has never been our shop's mission to be greed based. We want to provide incredible equipment, personally tweaked and modded by our shop, for a great price.

 

 

Here's another example of the amazing RL-GB!

 

Here's a new review from our customer George in Canada (2.23.17)

"Last spring, after a 50 year break, I decided to take up the trumpet again. I had played a Conn 28B during the 50s and 60s so I knew what a good professional horn is all about, and deciding on the Manchester ACB custom model RL-GB was a bit of a risk because I live in Canada and couldn't take a test drive. But I had already bought a vintage Selmer sight unseen from ACB and it had been a positive experience. Trent and Josh are great guys and you can take them at their word, believe me.

 
I play in a local community band and am one of 4 trumpet players. I had been using a Bach student model for my comeback while surrounded by pro horns like a Bach Strad and Yamaha Xeno, so I wanted a good pro horn but couldn't afford a 2 to 3K price tag. Josh recommended the RL-GB and the minute I took it in my hands a blew a few notes, I knew it would be the right fit for me. This is a fantastic lightweight horn with excellent intonation and is at home whether you are playing swing, folk or classical. It looks (tri-tone gold, yellow brass and nickel), feels and sounds the way a quality professional horn should, but the amazing thing is the 1K price tag. You would expect to play at least 2K for something of this quality in Canada.
 
I love this amazing horn (and so does everyone who has seen and heard it) and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a great pro model at an affordable price. And you will never go wrong dealing with those great guys at Austin Custom Brass.
 
George Bellefontaine"
 
 
 
 

Soulo Adjustable Cup Mute: 

We are delighted to have these in stock! These are awesome cup mutes that already have a dedicated following!

 

From the manufacturer:

The new adjustable cup mute for trumpet. Unlike any other cup mute, Soulo Cup is perfectly in tune in all registers, has minimal back-pressure, and no 'squirelly' notes. The specially formulated fiber materials and manufacturing process allow Soulo Cup to offer the traditional vintage cup mute sound, adjustability and perfect pitch all in one mute. It is considerably lighter than other brands. Each mute comes with a 100% organic cotton bag to protect it from wear and tear and provide a third sound color option: a darker cup mute sound, with the bag stuffed inside the cup. All these options allow the trumpet player to blend perfectly in a section comprised of different brands of cup mutes. The mute is perfect for performance and sound recordings, as it will never fall out the bell due to it being lightweight and its unique neoprene composite corks. Endorsed by US and international trumpet icons like Bria Skonberg, Wayne Bergeron, Chuck Findley, Roger Ingram, Jens Lindemann, Herb Alpert, Andrea Giuffredi and many more. Made in the USA by trumpet player Mike Jarosz.

 
 
 

Hercules Stand:

The DS410B TravLite In-Bell Trumpet Stand offers a compact design for storage inside the instrument bell when your trumpet is in its case. This stand features a velvet base to protect the interior finish of the instrument bell plus a folding five-leg design that's very stable and folds up to 7 inches in length.

 

 
 

ACB 2CS Mouthpiece:

  • 2CS: MV3C rim with my CS cup -- it's slightly smaller and also has a much more efficient entrance into the throat. This helps the articulation and adds a lively "zip" to the sound. This mouthpiece is especially good on vintage trumpets or overly dark horns to make them "speak."
