Review
« Il faut s’y habituer, mais une fois passé ce moment, c’est une merveille.
Un ami trompettiste, spécialiste du suraigu, a été étonné de voir que je pouvais jouer dans sa cour sans difficulté !
Le si bémol ne me fait plus peur. »
Gilles
“It takes a bit of getting used to, but once you do, it’s an absolute marvel.
A trumpeter friend, a high-register specialist, was amazed to see that I could play in his range effortlessly!
The high B-flat no longer scares me.”

Silver plating
A layer of silver is deposited on the brass.
Thanks to its good thermal conductivity, silver provides a smooth and comfortable feel on the lips.
We have chosen an exceptional plating with a thick layer of silver – 20 µm, ensuring very high quality and long-term durability.
Gold plating
A layer of pure 24-carat gold is deposited over the silver plating.
Thanks to its high thermal conductivity, gold provides a soft and warm sensation on the lips.
We have chosen an excellence plating in pure 24-carat gold, the only metal that does not oxidize over time.
