Brand New Schilke B1 Bb Trumpet - Silver Plate
For sale is a brand new, factory-original Schilke B1 Bb Trumpet in a brilliant Silver Plate finish. As the preferred instrument of Renold Schilke himself, the B1 is the quintessential all-around professional trumpet, renowned for its superior intonation, even response, and brilliant tone.
This is the perfect instrument for the commercial player, orchestral musician, or soloist who needs a single trumpet that can do it all. It is ideal for the player who wants the versatility of a standard Medium-Large bore horn but finds mass-produced instruments to be too resistant or inconsistent.
This horn is the direct high-end alternative to the Bach Stradivarius. While they share the same .460" Medium-Large bore, the Schilke B1 offers a notably more open, free-blowing feel, lighter weight, and significantly more precise intonation than its competitors.
The B1 is the foundation of the Schilke line, designed to offer the perfect balance of resistance and resonance.
What makes the B1 a superior professional choice:
-
Renold’s Favorite: This specific design was the personal preference of Renold Schilke, celebrated for its ability to blend in a section or soar as a solo voice.
-
Acoustic Balance: It combines a Medium-Large (.460") bore with a Medium-Large (M) Yellow Brass bell. This pairing creates a sound that is brilliant and responsive but retains a dense, focused core.
-
Precision Valve Block: Schilke valves are legendary for their tightness and speed. As a brand new unit, the compression is flawless, ensuring immediate response.
-
Silver Plate Finish: The premium silver plating is not only beautiful but enhances the acoustic brilliance and projection of the instrument.
