B&S MBX3 Heritage Bb Trumpet

Description

This new Bb trumpet was developed in collaboration with Christian Martinez (a renowned French professional trumpet player), with the inspiration to combine a characteristic sound, versatility, playability, and user-friendliness.

This trumpet has a full-bodied tone throughout its entire range rich in harmonics. Its richness of sound, along with exceptional tuning accuracy, make it an obvious choice for all styles of music, from jazz to classical. The French bead on the #43 bell allows a performer to be sensitive in a quieter context and can easily switch to soar over a big band.
