The Adams A4 Bb Trumpet is one of the most popular models in the Adams line, being the result of extensive collaborative work with Adams Performing Artist Amik Guerra.
This is one of their heavier models. Featuring a 5.5-inch one-piece bell and also a heavy chassis, this horn is an ideal choice for the soloist looking for an extremely rich, warm, fluid, and thick sounding horn.
While most people order this horn in the larger .472" bore, Adams does make a .461" bore instrument on request for clients.
Also available in this model is a shepherd´s crook model which allows for more personal expression in the dynamic and articulation palette. These unique options are special-order only.
