Description
Harrelson X53. Number 53 out of four trumpets of the Harrelson “X” series.
Designed for all-around playing, this limited series of just four trumpets (designated X53, X54, X55, X56) is a high efficiency design that produces a warm yet vibrant tone. This trumpet series produces a tone warmer than Bach and Yamaha professional trumpets. Featuring their X-bracing design, this horn was built with their gold brass, standard taper 1G bell in our standard end diameter and our medium large leadpipe that exhibits a beautiful balanced tone color and focused projection pattern. Includes their Venturi Gap Receiver (VGR) System with unlimited inserts for life, ergonomic finger rings, Saturn water keys, custom top caps, bottom caps, finger buttons, and high efficiency valve stems (HEVS). Matching Harrelson Modular Mouthpiece available to further adjust projection pattern, tone color and intonation. Finished in raw brass. You may preserve the finish with a coat of Carnauba wax or nanotech protective coating. No Case, No Mouthpiece.
