Description
Featuring 3 Monel piston valves with top-mounted springs and a bore size of .413″, this entry level professional flugelhorn delivers a rich, warm tone that resonates with clarity and depth. The addition of a trigger on the 3rd valve slide enhances playability, allowing effortless control and precise intonation. With a generous 5.98″ bell diameter, the resistance of the 3145 rewards with a beautifully balanced sound that’s perfect for any musical setting.
