A brand new design based on the traditional smaller bore size preferred by players around the world.

The Yamaha YFH-8315G was designed in conjunction with Jeremy Pelt and Wayne Bergeron.

Features

• Featuring an ergonomically enhanced trigger design, offering greater comfort and improved control.
• The newly designed third valve slide trigger is more ergonomic and will accommodate a wider range of hand sizes
• New leadpipe design - the Bob Malone leadpipe is a heavier type with a stepped outer shape and a new connection brace between the leadpipe and valve casing.
• 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.
• The two-piece gold brass bell delivers a focused sound with a large core.
