Any

of this work is to the specific requirements of the
customer, it is difficult to give examples although C
trumpets are often customised as follows.
|
C Trumpet
Customisation
- New maximum length
heavier leadpipe
- Shortened 1st valve
slide (with optional spring loading)
- Stays repositioned
- Bell changed (if
required)
This improves the overall
intonation and makes the trumpet freer blowing, resulting
in a fuller sound (often asked for for orchestral playing).
