Customize your very own Adams E1 Euphonium!

The Adams Euphoniums highlights are their great resonance, huge power, and full tone production. The Adams E1 is a lightweight Euphonium enabling a quick response without sacrificing on power or projection. The Adams Custom Series E1 lets you customize almost every aspect of the instrument. Check out all of the options in this listing, and don't hesitate to contact us so that we can help you make your custom E1 exactly how you want it!

The Adams Euphonium is characterized by a majestic body, a beautiful transparency and great tone projection. The patented Adams receiver enables you to regulate the color, timbre and playing comfort of the instrument. The "gap" between mouthpiece and leadpipe is adjustable.

Custom Bell Gauges:

- The thinner the gauge of the bell results in a more energized, faster response.

- The thicker the gauge of the bell will result in more stability and density to the sound

 

Bell Materials:

Yellow Brass

This bell is an excellent mix of materials for all round work as this material is very versatile. The sound is clear and brilliant at all dynamic levels, with a good core and great projection. This alloy is ideal for lead trumpet, commercial playing and studio work. Also a good choice for principal trumpet players in symphony orchestras or someone who is looking for good crispness to the articulated sound.


Gold Brass

Like the yellow brass bell this is a very versatile horn - a near perfect blend of warmth and projection. The gold brass brings a depth to the sound which is very smooth, rich and dark, however it is still a lively and agile trumpet. It responds quickly and has good projection without getting as brilliant as the yellow brass bell. We find it to be suited to a host of applications: be it in the jazz soloist, the crossover artist, the classical soloist, or someone who is looking for depth to sound while still retaining projection.


Red Brass

The Red Brass bell material is an ideal choice for the soloist who is looking for the richest, warmest, thickest sound available. Higher in copper content than our other two bell choices this provides the player with the smoothest transitions from note to note. Articulations are veiled (although with a lighter Red Brass bell option it is greatly improved) and sound shape is overall a bit wider in shape.


Sterling Silver

We do offer all Custom Series Trumpet Models with a solid Sterling silver bell. Sterling silver is a very versatile material but also much more dependent on the individual’s particular ability level. Therefore we recommend this bell option for the serious amateur or professional. The general characteristics are the bell is much darker and thicker when played at soft to medium volumes. When this bell is pushed the higher overtones are much more present and the result is a wonderful sound with great “sparkle.”

 

Finishes:

Raw Brass

This is actually no finish. The raw material of the instrument is only polished.


Silver Plated

This finish will liven and energize the sound slightly.


Gold Plated

This finish will leave the sound very similar to the original raw state.


Clear Lacquer

The instrument keeps the look of the raw material.


Gold Lacquer

A gold tone is added to the clear lacquer.


Copper Lacquer

A copper tone is added to the clear lacquer.


Antique

Colored lacquer which gives the instrument a typical antique look.

 

The Adams Carbon Trigger System offers an unparalleled smooth trigger action and a significant improvement in sound quality. Thanks to the use of carbon fibre, we can integrate the trigger legs more precisely into the instrument, minimizing air loss while ensuring smoother trigger movement than ever before. In an already maximally resonant instrument, this new system eliminates the possibility of this resonance affecting the trigger mechanism. Combined with less friction, the result is effortless playability, more easily centered notes, and an enriched overtone spectrum.  After years of research and countless play-tests, this innovative trigger system is now available for you.

    Custom Adams E1

    Posted by Kevin Friermood on 30th Jan 2021

    ACB made the process of custom ordering from Adams a breeze. Josh was a huge help and was always really timely with communicating what was needed from me and working with me to get the euphonium I wanted. I just got my euphonium in hand today after ordering approximately 3 weeks ago, so the overall process was remarkably fast. If you're in the market to custom order directly from Adams, I highly recommend ACB!
