Named to honor the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America the Centennial Bugle was built for musical excellence, ease of play, and pride of ownership. We started with the traditional Boy Scout Bugle (Specified by the US ARMY in 1892) as the starting point in our design. Our brass instrument expert designer then asked a simple question: "If I have a choice between playability and tradition, what do you want?" The answer, we tried to make this the most playable bugle on the market. Huge tone with a rapidly expanding bell throw, relative ease of play for the starting player, and just darn good to look at. Excellent intonation, project, tactile fell, and first class quality, but with a relatively simple design that allows us to sell it at a great price. You will not be disappointed with the Centennial bugle, exclusive to Scoutbugle.com.
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.
Size: 17 1/4" inches long weighing 16.6oz without the mouthpiece, and 20 oz with mouthpiece.
The bore size is a trumpet standard .460
Comes with a trumpet "7C" style mouthpiece. Since it uses a trumpet mouthpiece, it can be replaced quickly at any music store, or used with the players current MP.

In the Key of G (though can go lower with the extra long tuning slide, but plays best as a G bugle)
Play quality, construction, case and looks are superior to most bugles you'll find in your search today.
Shipping in the US maybe USPS Priority OR UPS. Pricing is based on US Priority.
Our new Arlington bugle takes the great feartures 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.
