Brand New Schilke 1041FLC-L Professional Flugelhorn - Brushed Lacquer with Copper Bell
We have a seriously cool brand new Schilke flugelhorn in the shop right now. If you are looking for that classic, ultra-warm, velvety flugelhorn sound, the 1041FLC-L is about as good as it gets.
This specific horn (serial number 72813) features a copper bell paired with a custom brushed lacquer finish. Not only does it look absolutely incredible with that matte aesthetic, but that specific combination of materials and finish gives the horn a remarkably fat, dark, and smoky tone. It's a perfect setup for jazz solos, brass band work, or anywhere you need a deeply resonant, expressive sound.
Key Features
-
Pure Copper Bell: The "C" in the model name stands for Copper. Copper is much softer than traditional yellow brass, which mellows out the high overtones and gives you a ridiculously warm, rich, and creamy sound.
-
Brushed Lacquer Finish: Instead of a traditional glossy lacquer or bright silver, this horn features a brushed, matte-style finish. It gives it a striking, modern look and slightly dampens the resonance for an even darker tonal color.
-
Legendary Schilke Valves: Schilke is famous across the industry for their valve sections. The piston action is incredibly fast, smooth, and built to incredibly tight tolerances for perfect compression.
-
Reliable Intonation: Flugelhorns can be notoriously tricky to play in tune, but Schilke's taper design provides very secure slotting and an even scale across all registers.
