Genius Solution S.e. Shires Q10s Q Series B-flat Trumpet 95% Off - Today Only [BLRu4za8]

Rich Tone and Controlled Feel for the Inspiring Professional

Q Series are entry-level professional instruments that have many of the same features as their Custom counterparts. When you purchase a Q Series instrument you join the S. E. Shires family, a family which includes some of the finest professional musicians in the world. The Shires Q10S features their hand-hammered Q bell, one-piece with 37 taper, a professional style 2-piece valveblock with monel pistons, and fixed third slide ring and screw-stop. The Shires case boasts a plush velvet interior and hardshell design for durability, with large exterior pouch and hideaway backpack straps for on-the-go use. The result is an instrument fit for a modern trumpet player at an affordable price.

Playing Characteristics

The Model Q10S trumpet produces a warm, singing sound with marvelous projection and easy, centered response in all registers. The Q10 bell maintains its characteristic warmth and focus at louder dynamics, while providing a more veiled sound at lower dynamics. The Q05 leadpipe provides an ideal combination of efficiency and flexibility, allowing the player to produce the most delicate passages with ease. Nickel-silver balusters and valve caps add brilliance and character to the sound, increase its core, and contribute to cleanness and immediacy of attack. This trumpet makes a great choice as an all-around instrument for performance in a wide variety of musical settings.
