YAMAHA YTR-8310ZIIS CUSTOM Z Lightweight Bb Trumpet Silver Plate - YTR8310ZIIS

YAMAHA YTR-8310ZIIS CUSTOM Z Lightweight Bb Trumpet Silver Plate - YTR8310ZIIS

In 2018, Yamaha and Bobby Shew collaborated to create a second-generation Yamaha YTR-8310ZII Custom Z professional trumpet. It further refines the tone and playing resistance that contemporary styles demand.

Bobby Shew needed a trumpet that could wail out powerful lead lines and also play soft, mellow ballads with musical nuance - the Yamaha Custom Z YTRP8310ZII is the result.

 Features

• Two-piece Valve Casing - adds depth and core to the instrument’s tone while balancing the playing resistance
• One-piece Side-seam Bell - passes through the points where tubing braces dampen vibration, for more open resonance
• French Bead Bell Rim - provides a flat-dome rim shape that enhances feedback to the player
• TR-SHEW-JAZZ Mouthpiece - has a deep and roomy cup for a big, warm sound and nimbly maneuvers through quick jazz passages with a rich, full tone.\
• Stylish TRC-810E double case with backpack straps, a shoulder strap, and a Custom Z keychain

The Yamaha YTR-8310ZIIS silver-plated Custom Z professional trumpet is shaped into form by the skilled hands of a master craftsman, then assembled and adjusted by hand into a one-of-a-kind instrument. Contact Andy's Music and order yours today.
