Yamaha YTR8335LAS Custom Silver Plated Bb Trumpet
Developed by Yamaha trumpet artist Wayne Bergeron and Yamaha Artist Services, Inc. Band & Orchestral Atelier Director Bob Malone the YTR-8335LA/LAS offers features and design improvements that provide the player with optimum efficiency, as well as a full, rich sound with a wider spectrum of tone and improved projection. To quote Wayne: “Since my line of work covers a lot of ground musically, I need an instrument that responds to these needs. The YTR-8335LA is the most versatile Bb trumpet I have ever played – from the scoring stage to soaring over a big band, the Yamaha 8335LA delivers the full spectrum of tone colors needed to get the job done."
