Yamaha YFH-8310Z Bobby Shew Flugel Horn
A brand new design based on the traditional smaller bore size preferred by players around the world.
The Yamaha YFH-8310Z combines the tonal richness and depth of character of the older traditional flugels with the playability and superb intonation made possible by high-tech engineering. Inspired by legendary artist Bobby Shew, the Z features the perfect amount of air resistance to let you colour your sound exactly the way you want to. A versatile instrument, this instrument is so easy to play in the upper register, you'll forget you're playing a flugel!
Complete with a special 'Bobby Shew' signature mouthpiece this perfectly balances and complements the Z.
Features
- A brand new design based on the original YFH-6310Z Bobby Shew Professional Bb flugelhorn
- The newly designed third valve slide trigger is more ergonomic and will accommodate a wider range of hand sizes
- New leadpipe design - The YFH-8310Z features a newly designed leadpipe, outer leadpipe area and a new connection brace between the leadpipe and the valve casing
- New top and bottom valve caps - The new top and bottom valve caps match the YTR-8310Z Bobby Shew Custom Bb trumpet
- Vertical valve tubing - Traditionally, flugelhorns are made with vertical valve tubing
- Monel pistons - Monel pistons are resistant to corrosion and are an ideal choice for professional flugelhorn pistons which must retain precise fit and smooth action over many years
- Hand-lapped pistons and slides - Hand-lapping pistons and slides ensures an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the pistons and casing or slide parts. Such a perfect fit helps to achieve smooth air flow and smooth action and improve the response and intonation of the instrument.
