This model utilizes our famous copper bronze hybrid bell made from a Benge 5x mandrel.
It offers the bronze “ring” but the copper look. Great for Latin jazz. The upper register rings forever.
Our new Arlington bugle takes the great features of our Kevin Power designed Centennial bugle and adds some extra "pizazz." FUNCTIONALLY there is minimal difference between instruments, however a few features were added to make this extra special for a gift or those wanting a more interesting horn. We've added chrome plated tuning slide supports which adds a bit of weight and support along with great looks. We've added a Hex receiver, similar to the Bach Stradivarius trumpet. This appears to seat the mouthpiece better while, in the rare case a mouthpiece gets stuck, giving more of a "bite" to the mouthpiece puller. The case has been upgraded with a larger zipper, a smaller overall shape and thicker padding.
Features:
Plays
in the key of G assisting the beginning player hit the
higher notes then a typical B-flat instrument. While
the traditional Boy Scout bugle is listed as a "G/F"
bugle. In reality the "F" is available by pulling
the tuning slide WAY out. This makes for a very squirrelly
instrument with poor intonation. We've included the
extra long tuning slide, but since in reality the bugle plays best
in "G" that's how we market it and recommend it be
used. There are many who feel the lower pitch of the "G"
bugle sounds more appropriate for the playing of "TAPS"
even asking trumpet players to drop their pitch by pressing down
valves 1 and 2.
Has
great playability for the beginning player, resonates easily.
Not to say it won't take practice to learn, it just takes a bit
less work to play.
Trumpet
mouthpiece receiver. The traditional Boy Scout bugle often
takes a cornet mouthpiece or a special mouthpiece, we made sure
ours was designed to use the same mouthpiece the scout is most
likely to use in their school instrument, which would be a
trumpet.
Hex Mouthpiece
receiver adds extra stabilization along with more area to "bite"
in case the mouthpiece needs to be removed due to getting "stuck"
(your local music store should help remove for free or a few
dollars. Remember to always remove the mouthpiece after use and
never hit the mouthpiece into the horn to seat).
Shipped in Lacquered
coating only, no reason to chrome plate and than cover with
