Adams A9 Martin Inspired Bb Trumpet (ex demo)

A$4,500.00 A$2,900.00

Adams have taken the classic design concept of the Martin trumpets of the mid-20th century and fixed some of the issues on these horns (i.e. not optimal intonation, slotting, and narrow sound color options). The result after much prototype work came one this model. This is a very unique trumpet, ex Demo with very minor wear and priced to clear, come into the store to try it out or contact us for more photos.

Adams A7 Bb Trumpet silver plated (ex demo)

A$4,500.00 A$2,900.00

The A7 is a large (.470/12mm) bore instrument that is suited for a player who wants a very open feel and large note targets. The A7 was a direct result of extensive work with Adams Artist Guido Segers. This also features our largest mouthpipe (Adams 2L) which also accentuates the spread of sound. Primarily geared towards the orchestral player we have found this to be extremely popular with the jazz soloist also. This trumpet is in silver pate (unlike picture shown) and is in near new condition. As it is ex demo, we can send you through specific pictures and details at your request. Trumpet comes with an Adams gig bag.

Adams A6 Bb Trumpet Nickel Plated (ex demo)

A$0.00

he A6, designed in collaboration with Adams Performing Artist Dontae Winslow, is a fantastic combination of old-world craftsmanship with modern improvements. Originally based on the classic “Connstellation” this horn possesses many of the same features of the older instrument, such as the smaller bore (.438/11mm), wide wrap, ergonomics, first-valve trigger assembly, and counterweights. While the original instrument is still quite wonderful we worked at improving the overall sound color palette, the intonation, the centering, and weight balance. The result of years of refining is the bond of old and new.

This Trumpet comes in Nickel plate and shows minor wear from being a showroom model.

Adams A5 ‘Commercial’ Bb Trumpet (ex demo)

A$4,500.00 A$2,900.00

The A5 is perfectly suited for the commercial trumpeter looking for a lightweight horn with excellent intonation, slotting, and response. Initially when we designed this instrument here we thought it was only going to cater towards the commercial/lead trumpeter but we find many of our classical artists looking for an easy-playing instrument for “pops” work also liking this very much.
