LOTUS Silver Flare Solo Bb-Trumpet; bore size: medium large .460" (11,7mm); body made of yellow brass; pure silver flare; bell diameter: 140mm (5.5"); medium weight bronze receiver; medium weight nickel silver leadpipe; wall thickness: 0.9mm (.035"); main tuning slide made of bronze and one of yellow brass; upper valve caps: light; lower valve caps: medium; this bell has a moderately-shaped taper throughout, but it's just a bit larger than average, which makes it great for producing a massive amount of sound and a lot of flexibility; the final flare diameter is oversized compared to common trumpets, which helps give the sound a wider projection and a richer core to the sound; this is the only LOTUS bell with a flare of pure silver, and it has a very different sound signature as a result; Soloists looking for a wide range of expression with a unique palate of colors will find lots to love about this horn; incl. gig bag
