Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Schilke’s X3 is a silver-plated Bb trumpet for players seeking a free-blowing large-bore setup. Its .463-inch bore, large-throat #1-taper bell, reverse leadpipe, and rounded full-radius tuning slide are combined to deliver the sound and projection associated with the B Series while using less resistance. This version carries a beryllium copper bell. It also includes Monel valves, a first-slide thumb saddle, a fixed third-slide ring, and a custom double hard case.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players seeking B Series sound and projection with less resistance in a large-bore Bb trumpet.
- Performance work that calls for the X3’s free-blowing response and projection.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
