BOBBY SHEW Model
The Lead model gives that extra sizzle and
high note clarity for playing lead parts.
The Jazz model has a fairly deep roomy
cup for a warm, big sound, and a throat
and backbore designed to give enough
“jump and snap” for maneuvering through
quick jazz passages with a rich full sound.
ALLEN VIZZUTTI Model
The shallow cup with smooth inner rim
edge gives a clear focused sound and
plays evenly in all registers.
PIERRE DUTOT Model
The trademark of the DUTOT-S is its
rich cornet sound, making it perfect for
French-style cornet performances. The
DUTOT-L possesses a full, bright treble
register, and is suited for use on piccolo
trumpets that have a cornet shank.
