THIS YAMAHA YTR-8310Z BOBBY SHEW LIGHTWEIGHT Bb TRUMPET IS UP FOR BID AND HAS A BIGGER, WARMER SOUND THAN MOST TRUMPETS. I’VE NEVER PLAYED A SILVER PLATED 8310Z, BUT I WAS TOLD THE LACQUERED 8310Z SOUNDS BETTER. IT FEATURES A LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN WITH A STEPPED .445-INCH BORE WITH A LARGE BORE UN-BRACED MAIN TUNING SLIDE FOR A BIG SOUND WITH MINIMAL EFFORT. IT ALSO FEATURES A 5-INCH ONE-PIECE HAND HAMMERED YELLOW BRASS BELL AND A ONE-PIECE DRAWN GOLD BRASS REVERSE LEADPIPE FOR SUPERIOR PROJECTION AND OUTSTANDING RESPONSE. INCLUDED IS THE ORIGINAL STANDARD SMALL YAMAHA CASE (WITH KEYS) SHOWN IN THE PICTURE. ALSO, INCLUDED ARE THE STANDARD BOTTOM CAPS AND THREE 3/4 INCH LARGE BRASS BOTTOM VALVE CAPS. NO MOUTHPIECE. THERE ARE NO DENTS OR DINGS IN THIS HORN. WHERE THE THUMB IS PLACED BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND VALVE, THERE IS A VERY SMALL LOSS OF LACQUER THAT IS HARD TO SEE ON THE VALVE CASING. I WILL DRAW A RED CIRCLE IN THE PICTURE WHERE IT IS. IT'S ALMOST TRANSPARENT AND WILL NOT PHOTOGRAPH. HAND LAPPED PISTONS AND SLIDES ENSURE 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 IMPROVES THE RESPONSE AND INTONATION OF THE INSTRUMENT.

A HIGH-ENERGY LASER FUSES THE BRASS TOGETHER FOR A VIRTUALLY SEAMLESS BELL WHICH ALLOWS CONTINUOUS EVEN VIBRATIONS. ONE-PIECE DRAWN GOLD BRASS REVERSE LEADPIPE OFFERS EXCELLENT INTONATION, RESPONSE AND PROPER RESISTANCE. AS WITH ALL YAMAHA LIGHTWEIGHT TRUMPETS, THE YTR-8310Z HAS AN UN-BRACED INNER OUTER TUNING SLIDE WHICH MAKES THE TRUMPET COMFORTABLY OPEN WITH LESS RESISTANCE.
