A fantastic orchestral C trumpet!

 

Shires makes amazing horns, and this horn is no exception! The TRQ11RS Model features a reverse leadpipe, Q11 Yellow Brass Bell, and a beautiful engraving. We're so excited to be a Shires dealer so we can bring you fantastic horns like this one! This particular horn plays like a dream, is very easy-blowing, and is super fun to play! It was shipped to us as a show demo, so it has a few very minor scratches throughout the horn. Most notably, the scratches appear on the spots where players have held the horn (underside of the bell near the valve block, the first and third slides, and the leadpipe.) These cosmetic blemishes do not affect the playability of the horn whatsoever, so take advantage of this opportunity to get a great horn at a great price today!

 

 

TRQ11RS Specs

The model Q11RS trumpet features a more open bell taper which produces a big, powerful sound with easy response. Matched with a firm, yet flexible slotting reverse leadpipe, this trumpet achieves an ideal balance of breadth, clarity, agility, and projection. Nickel-silver balusters and valve caps add brilliance and character to the sound, increase its core, and contribute to cleanness and immediacy of attack.
