We presently only have them for trumpet and horn.\u003cspan\u003eWhen I made the design change in 1999-2000 it was with some reluctance that I switched to recycled delrin as the basic material instead of brass. After all, we are brass players. However the design changes I made have so improved the function, and lowered the cost that in retrospect it was a no-brainer.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Classic functions very well when you cannot have your instrument to “berp” on, and you are satisfied with the resistance it provides. It looks great, and some say gets a better buzz sound than the present design. If you are a trumpet or horn player I suggest you buy one of each and never leave home without your Berp.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berp Company","offers":[{"title":"Horn","offer_id":45602849718470,"sku":"210000000726","price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/4036\/0902\/files\/classicberp.gif?v=1772893923"},{"product_id":"berp-company-the-berp","title":"The Berp","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA well-developed embouchure is essential for creating a great brass sound. BERP stands for Buzz Extension and Resistance Piece. Here’s how it works: just attach the BERP to your horn’s leadpipe, pop in your mouthpiece, dial in the resistance just right, and buzz away. Since the air isn’t going into the instrument, a BERP is the ideal solution for quieter practice in noise-sensitive environments. With enough practice, you’ll be able to play entire songs with just the mouthpiece! Whether you’re a beginner or a longtime player, a BERP can help you improve your tone and playing experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe clamp.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Berp clamp fits firmly onto the open end of the instrument’s receiver, with the mouthpiece removed. It’s designed to tighten around a round, hex, or convex-shaped opening. If a receiver has an oversized ring at the opening, it may be necessary to push the clamp past that before tightening down. For some receivers, you may also need to add black electrical tape to the inside of the clamp to help prevent slippage and ensure a secure fit. Most people prefer to line The Berp up parallel to the receiver at the “three o’clock” position. You may want to experiment with other positions to determine what’s best for you. Once The Berp is firmly attached, you can easily alternate between buzzing and playing your instrument by switching the mouthpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe resistence dial.\u003c\/strong\u003e The dial for the trumpet, horn, and cornet Berp should be positioned below the holes and pushed up to partially cover them to create the desired resistance. The dial on The Berp for trombones, euphoniums, and tubas should be positioned above the holes and lowered to create the desired resistance. Beginners usually have a better chance of getting a good buzz with slightly more resistance. Once a good buzz is achieved, resistance on The Berp should be dialed similarly to that of the instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berp Company","offers":[{"title":"French Horn","offer_id":45602849784006,"sku":"Berp1","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cornet","offer_id":45602849816774,"sku":"berp2","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Trumpet","offer_id":45602849849542,"sku":"Berp3","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Trombone-SS","offer_id":45602849882310,"sku":"BERP4","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Trombone-LS","offer_id":45602849915078,"sku":"Berp5","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Tuba","offer_id":45602849980614,"sku":"Berp6","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/4036\/0902\/files\/qlr6ykmo0g3azsw7wbjq.jpg?v=1772893926"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.dillonmusic.com\/es\/collections\/berp-company.oembed","provider":"Dillon Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
