Honed pistons | The precise fit between valve
casings and pistons after honing means no air leakage. |
Pressure-formed tubing | Perfectly rounded tubing results
in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent
scale and reduced resistance. |
Laser-fused pluzuma welded bell | A high-energy laser fuses
the brass together for a virtually seamless bell whih allows continuous
even vibrations. |
Nickel silver at stress points | Nickel silver is a very strong
material, and when used at stress points, makes the instrument far more
durable. |
Delrin one-piece valve guides | Delrin one-piece valve guides
are durable and quieter than metal valve guides. |
Large bore and large bell | Combining the large bore and
large bell makes the student trumpet free-blowing with a voluminous sound.

lacquer Microscopic,
electrically-charged particles of lacquer are attracted to and deposited
evenly on the surface of the instrument carrying the opposite charge. This
produces an exceptionally thin, uniform coating that can be oven-hardened
for maximum durability without compromising the instrument's sound. The
sound produced is a solid, somewhat harder sound than silver-plate finishes.
