S.E. Shires Q Series Q15S Eb/D Trumpet

Play With Clarity - The S.E. Shires Q Series Q15S Eb/D Trumpet

A fantastic Eb/D trumpet, the model Q15S trumpet features our popular Eb/D open bell taper which produces a big, powerful sound with easy response. Matched with a .345” venturi, yellow brass leadpipe, this trumpet provides an ideal combination of efficiency and flexibility, allowing the player to produce the most delicate passages with ease. Nickel-silver balusters and valve caps add brilliance and character to the sound, increase its core, and contribute to cleanness and immediacy of attack.
