Yamaha Standard Flugelhorns feature honed valves for a precise fit between valve casings and pistons. The laser-fuzed pluzuma-welded bell provides continuous, even vibrations. Reduced resistance and an excellent scale are ensured by the pressure-formed tubing while the movable mouthpiece receiver makes tuning easy. Horizontal valve tubing eases the transition for trumpet doublers.

The Yamaha Z combines the tonal richness and depth of character of the older traditional flugels with the easy playability and superb intonation made possible by high-tech engineering. Inspired by legendary artist Bobby Shew, the Z features the perfect amount of air resistance to let you color the sound-your sound-exactly the way you want to. And it slots so nicely in the upper register you'll forget you're playing a flugel! A special 'Bobby Shew' signature mouthpiece is included which perfectly balances and complements the Z.
Yamaha Custom Flugelhorns are an exceptional combination of modern design techniques and old world hand craftmanship. Classic flugelhorn designs such as vertical valve tubing and a movable mouthpiece receiver for flexible intonation accompany new features such as the ergonomically shaped third valve slide trigger, designed to accommodate a wide range of hand sizes. The newly designed leadpipes provide excellent response and intonation throughout the entire range of this instrument.
