The Vintage 1 Flugel horn has loads of premium features that you would expect from Conn. There’s a comfortable wooden 3rd valve slide trigger allowing you to have the ultimate control over your intonation and tuning. The superior construction doesn’t stop there though. The A-team of professionals who designed this Flugel also equipped it with a hand-hammered, one piece bell made from rose brass which guarantees that your velvet tones will project confidently. Just because it's the smallest member of the tuba family, it doesn't mean it can't make a big impact.
Such high-quality features and sound make the Vintage 1 ideal for multiple settings. So, whether you’re looking to upgrade your brass band or add some creamy textures to your jazz music, this horn has you covered.
This Flugel isn’t just a purchase, it’s an investment. It has been carefully devised with sustainable materials to make sure it stays with you for a lifetime. The valves are crafted from monel which is a nickel and copper alloy that is very dense and resistant to corrosion, meaning they won't flake and are less likely to seize up. Along with the renowned craftsmanship from Conn, you know you’re getting a quality instrument that won’t ever need replacing.
The only thing that would make this horn even more magnificent is a finish to match its high-standard construction. Well, you’re in luck. A layer of clear lacquer is applied to keep the instrument looking fresh and on point, just like your music. The lacquer makes sure that the horn looks newer for longer, safeguarding it from inevitable scratches and scrapes.
