New design features distinguishes the response and intonation.
Introducing the Metropolitan Series - a new range of professional trumpets from B&S. This Metropolitan C Trumpet is made in the German tradition with American musicians in mind. Thanks to a blossoming new partnership with renowned brass expert, Josh Landress, owner of J. Landress Brass in New York City, the design is top notch.
The Metropolitan Series distinguishes itself from the B&S Challenger Series and has been redesigned from the ground up. New features include a 2-piece valve section, skeletonized lightweight pistons, and a revolutionary Harmonic Balancing System. The Harmonic Balancing System provides musicians the ability to finely tune the instrument to fit their personality. Additional features of this model include a newly designed bell, leadpipe, and mouthpiece receiver. Combined, these result in players having superior intonation, an exceptional balance of resonance and brilliance, and a perfect marriage of high volume threshold, resistance, and control.
The first installment from this new series was met with high praise at the NAMM Show in January 2020.
