This unique variation on our popular Model A trumpet features a special, slightly squarer bell bend with a side seam and standard brass bead. It produces a brilliant, broad tone of medium density with marvelous projection and easy response. The WH leadpipe provides and ideal combination of stability and flexibility; its free-blowing character compliments the centered bell taper. Nickel-silver balusters and valve caps add brilliance and character to the sound, increase its core, and contribute to cleanness and immediacy of attack. This trumpet makes a great choice as an all-around instrument for performance in a wide variety of musical settings.

I love my new Shires AZ. It is beautiful and so far I am very pleased with how it response and the beautiful tone. The trumpet arrived with brown streaks and marks on the inside and outside of the bell and a few other areas. They did not come off easily and I am still working on them, but they are coming off. I spoke with a sales rep and tech person from your office and they were good to work with. All in all, I am very please. I do miss my thin O rings for the 1st and 3rd slides. I played my Bach Strad fro 40 years, and got used to them. Thank you.
