What a beautiful horn
Trent worked the NAMM show in LA a week ago and played this particular trumpet: He was so impressed with it he knew he had to buy it for the shop! Custom builds from Adams are currently running at a minimum of 6-months on a wait. Order this one today with NO wait!
This has the beautiful custom antique lacquer finish with polished accents and a polished inner bell. It's a stunner both in looks and especially in the way it plays!
Adams a1v2: A great all-around trumpet with modern flair!
The new A1 has been developed in collaboration with US based trumpeter Trent Austin, and features an all-new valve block, leadpipe, and bell taper. It's a high-end horn with a rich spectrum of overtones and a brighter-than-center sound profile. A wonderful all-around trumpet, with a ringing, brilliant sound that really shines in commercial settings. The scale is super even and the valves matched the highest possible standards.
The A1 was designed to be a versatile horn for the crossover player. It was the first trumpet in the Adams line and it was a fairly traditional setup. Now the fully redesigned GenII A1 takes full advantage of 7 years of experience in trumpet design and manufacturing to deliver an amazing upgrade over the original A1. The new valve block is a two-piece block with nickel balusters so you get a good crispness to the core of the horn. Plus the valve block feels great in your hand, with good balance and ergonomics. The GenII A1 comes standard with a Saturn water key on the tuning slide.
