Bb Trumpet Lead Pipes |
|
Lead Pipe |
Model |
Description |
|
25 |
Std. |
Some resistance, effective in
centering or tying together tone production.
Standard; The right leadpipe for most people |
|
25-O |
Std. XL
Std. LT |
More open and free-blowing, less
restrictive than 25. Less resitance than the
25, but is not quite as free blowingt as the 43 |
|
6 |
|
Slightly more restrictive than 25.
For those who want alot of resistance, the most
restrictive leadpipe bach makes. Similar to the
leadpipe found on the Yamaha "Z" trumpet. Helps with
endurance. |
|
7 |
|
Darker tone, more
free-blowing than 25. Dark, similar to the 43,
but not nearly as bright. |
|
43 |
|
More open feeling with less
resistance and more flexibility than 25. Brighter
sound. A favorite for lead players. Very open
and bright. Some people find that this "kills your
chops" faster than the 25. |
|
44 |
|
Brighter sounding than 43 for more
flexible tone placement. Basically the 43 but
slightly brighter. Material used is nickel silver or
german silver, unlike the common yellow brass used
in the std. leadpipes. |
|
25LR |
Std. LR |
Reversed construction, longer form
of 25 with less resistance. Because it's
reversed, its overall longer. Is is said to give
little resistance, but alot players hate LR pipes. |
|
43LR |
|
Reversed construction, longer form
of 43 with less resistance.
Like the 25 LR but has
even less resistance. |
|
C Trumpet Lead Pipes |
|
Lead Pipe |
Model |
Description |
|
25C |
Std. |
Some resistance, effective in
centering or tying together tone production.
Standard; The right leadpipe for most people |
|
25H |
|
Bigger tone, more free-blowing and
flexible than 25C. Herseth leadpipe-(hence the
"H"...) Big, fat, sound. Takes air to play and can
sound airy in the lower register. |
|
25A |
|
Longer than 25C.
Many people find this has slightly less resistance
than the 25C...Not much of a difference at all... |
|
25S |
|
Full length B mouthpipe (longer than
25A) with only 3.4" pull on main tuning slide.
"Full length Bb leadpipe, with only a "3/4 pull on
main tuning slide." In other words, it helps the C
trumpet play more open. Schlueter
leadpipe-(hence the "S"...) |
|
25R |
|
Reversed construction, longer form
of 25C. More open and free-blowing with darker
sound. Additional length improves intonation of high
register. |
|
7C |
|
Darker tone, more free-blowing than
25C. Darker, bolder, less resistance than the
standard leadpipe |
|
7R |
|
Reversed construction, longer form
of 7C. Less resistant, free-blowing. Additional
length improves intonation of high register.
Like the 7C but it is a reversed pipe. Even less
resistance than the 7C |
|
6R |
|
Reversed construction, longer form
of 6. Less resistant, free-blowing. Additional
length improves intonation of high register.
Because it's reversed, its overall longer. Is is
said to give little resistance, but alot players
hate LR pipes. |
|
43C |
|
More open feeling with less
resistance and more flexibility than 25C. Very
similar to the Bb 43...free blowing, little
resistance, etc. Nice sound in upper register |
|
43R |
|
Reversed construction, longer form
of 43C. Less resistant, free-blowing. Additional
length improves intonation of high register.
LR...Very similar to the 43C but can actually be a
little stuffy in the lower register |
|
44C |
|
Brighter than 43C with more flexible
tone placement. Bright sounding, too bright
when combined with the 229 bell for most people. |
|
44R |
|
Reversed construction, longer form
of 44C. Less resistant, free-blowing. Additional
length improves intonation of high register.
You guessed it....LR...Very similar to the 43C but
can actually be a little stuffy in the lower
register |
