In 2018, Yamaha and Bobby Shew collaborated to create a second-generation Yamaha YTR-8310ZII Custom Z professional trumpet. It further refines the tone and playing resistance that contemporary styles demand.
Bobby Shew needed a trumpet that could wail out powerful lead lines and also play soft, mellow ballads with musical nuance - the Yamaha Custom Z YTRP8310ZII is the result.
Standout features of the Custom Z YTR8310ZIIS include:
- Two-piece Valve Casing - adds depth and core to the instrument’s tone while balancing the playing resistance
- One-piece Side-seam Bell - passes through the points where tubing braces dampen vibration, for more open resonance
- French Bead Bell Rim - provides a flat-dome rim shape that enhances feedback to the player
- TR-SHEW-JAZZ Mouthpiece - has a deep and roomy cup for a big, warm sound and nimbly maneuvers through quick jazz passages with a rich, full tone.\
- Stylish TRC-810E double case with backpack straps, a shoulder strap, and a Custom Z keychain
The Yamaha YTR-8310ZIIS silver-plated Custom Z professional trumpet is shaped into form by the skilled hands of a master craftsman, then assembled and adjusted by hand into a one-of-a-kind instrument. Contact Andy's Music and order yours today.
