Schilke SB4-OT "Soloiste" Bb Trumpet

The Schilke SB4-OT "Soloiste" Bb Trumpet is part of the Soloiste Series developed by Schilke Music. This series was a design collaboration with Schilke international artist Marc Geujon, and the SB4-OT model was specifically developed with Schilke Artist Osamu Takahashi. The SB4-OT model offers options for bell, main tuning slide, and bracing design, built to the specifications of Osamu Takahashi. These design elements combine to provide a unique experience for the orchestral trumpet player. At the heart of the Soloiste Series is a new valve casing designed for a resonant, clear sound throughout its register. The SB4-OT's leadpipe and bell are also new designs, created specifically for Osamu Takahashi. The SB4-OT Bb Trumpet features a one-piece, hand-hammered yellow brass HD bell, a Soloiste standard leadpipe, and a square main tuning slide with a brace. It has a medium large bore of .460". The trumpet also features an exquisite bell engraving, adding an elegant touch to the instrument.
