Trevor James Renaissance TJFL5500 Flugel Horn, Lacquer

Full Description

Durable Design

The key phrase Trevor James uses often is not a tagline or a slogan but was the design objective for the Trevor James renaissance range of brass instruments. Trevor James has set a new standard in brass manufacture and design, making sure that all instruments are built to perform to the musician's needs. The cupronickel (copper-nickel alloy) slides are a great addition to the instrument due to their corrosion resistant properties. This way the slides will be easy to move, even if left for a long period. The addition of a trigger on the third valve slide ensures tuning on tricky low notes is never an issue.

Rose Bell & Clear Finish

Rose brass is the perfect material for flugel horns as it contributes to the warmth of the overall sound. This is why the majority of flugel horns used in brass bands are made out of rose brass. In addition, the clear lacquer finish will make sure your instrument looks newer for longer.

Everything You Need

The Trevor James flugel horn comes with everything you need to get started. A backpack-style case is included for protecting your instrument while travelling and features a large side pocket designed to hold all your sheet music. Also included is the Trevor James 4BF mouthpiece so you can waste no time getting started with your flugel horn.

Renaissance Range

The new renaissance range from Trevor James has set a new standard in brass manufacture. These instruments have been uniquely designed and engineered to integrate perfectly into a British brass band. The renaissance range is ideal for those looking for a step-up from a starter instrument and wanting to progress their playing.
