Yamaha YTR-9635 Custom Specialty Keyed Eb / E Trumpet | Silver Finish

Heavyweight construction makes the YTR-9635 trumpet at home from solo playing to orchestral performance. Yamaha high-pitched trumpets feature brilliant tone with crisp clear attacks and excellent control in the high register. Though originally used primarily for Baroque music, they are increasingly used by solo and orchestral players for security with difficult high passages as well as for the clarity and lyrical qualities of their sound. The 9635 features a heavyweight bell for the rich full sound of a big trumpet, yet with easy control in high registers. It comes with two bells and sets of slides to convert it to either E or Eb which makes it especially suitable for both Hummel and Haydn concertos.

About Yamaha Custom Trumpets

Yamaha Custom Trumpets are handcrafted for exceptional quality. Hand-lapped valves ensure a precise fit between casings and pistons while the hand-lapped slides provide fast,
smooth action for tuning. The hand-hammered one-piece bell provides maximum projection with a dark tonal color.

Included Accessories

• YAC TR14B4 Trumpet mouthpiece; rounded rim contour and shallow cup for brilliant sound and easy response in upper register
• YAC TRC-903 Wooden trumpet case
• YAC RVO Superior valve oil

Features

• Hand-hammered one-piece bell: A one-piece bell has an axial (lengthwise) seam, making it a continuous extension of the instrument's material. This results in pure, uniform resonance and superior tone. A hammered yellow brass bell produces a perfectly-balanced tone with quick response and extra presence due to advanced manufacturing.
• Hand-lapped pistons and slides: Hand-lapping pistons and slides ensures an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the pistons and casing or slide parts. Such a perfect fit helps to achieve smooth air flow and smooth action and improve the response and intonation of the instrument.
• Pressure-formed tubing: Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance.
• Laser-fused pluzuma welded bell: A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell which allows continuous even vibrations.
• One-piece, drawn, gold brass leadpipe: This type of leadpipe offers excellent intonation, response and proper resistance. Handcrafted
