Where did you get your hands on a King K30 Euph?

Sounds very airy. It lacks the luscious, full tone of either my Wessex or Besson.

Makes me wonder if bcu would sound better on marching euphoniums

HIIIIII TEACHHHHHH I AM GOING TO COME AND TAKE THAT HORN OF YOURSSSSS AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH😂😂😂😂

Beautiful case!! Very nice instrument

Definitely love the sound of the marching Euphonium. Smooth as butter. Deep as the sea.

you seriously don’t know how long i have been searching for this video😭

Great video! I'm surprised this isn't a bigger channel

Only if I could have it😞

Former high school and drum corps euphonium player here who wants to join a community band and own my own horn. Thanks so much for this review!

For me after high Bb it just slides around that area so it’s hard to hit a note constantly

I really like Misa Mead's videos.

I have a 2280 from 1982, mine keeps the mouthpiece nice and snug. And yes, the metal valve guides are a bit noisy. Not bad though.

I had one of these. Big sound and built like a tank. The valves weren't really clunky sound wise but couldn't compare to my Besson in speed. Higher range was awesome, all the way to treble double G, using matched mouthpiece.

Man was definitely sponsored by blessing lol. I think there is a reason that drum corps uses Yamaha. Also, the overall quality of Yamaha is by far superior. Worth the extra cost.

It takes standard trombone mouthpiece cause it's in the same key as a trombone

Você tem algum material para o flugobone para estudos

The Bach is an Olds design that they produced using their tooling. The Blessing is an original design, but smaller-bore than the Bach (.560") and the Yamaha (.571"). The Bach was produced until the 1990s, when they switched to Yamaha low brass.

Is this the 1.0 or the 2.0 version of the pTrumpet

Thanks, this helped a lot!

When I matched Baritone with the Madison Scouts in the 80's we would crunch up the horns all too often because of the difficulty of the drill. Even a small crease in the bell would cause a significant decrease in the projection of the horn and make it difficult to maintain any tone quality at higher volume levels. Big dents in the main tube also caused smooth flow issues at larger air volumes. Your Blessing had both a badly crumpled bell and huge dents in the last bend of the main tube leading to the bell section. The fact that it played as well as it did with these handicaps is a testiment to just how good that horn really was. We got pretty good at rolling out dents with drumsticks and wooden rolling pins and whatever else we could scrounge up. It didn't have to be pretty, it just had to be unkinked to make a huge difference.

This helped me make up my mind about getting a ptrumpet. General consensus is “nope”. Thanks.

For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment; (2peter2:4) - Because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead. (Acts17:31) For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. (‭‭John‬ ‭3‬‬:‭16-17‬) Jesus loves you, he’s waiting for you to repent and put your faith and trust in Him :) Hope you have a good day

I have to play Greensleeves/Fantasia of the Dargason for my concert in December. Cool!

Who did that to your bell

My marching band has 11 baris

You've been pranked. Some students likely did this on purpose. Little bass tids. Hopefully there isn't some rental horn out there somewhere outside of your band room with these valves instead of one of your other horns where you habe a hope of finding them. I was searching your stream for a longer-term review of the pTrumpet when I came across this video. Have a great school year and be safe with COVID. Being a band director isn't just on the front lines, you are like 50 miles behind enemy lines and on your own there. Kids blowing their sick air at you all day, oy!

Thank you! This was exactly the information that I needed.

Another KZfaqr said that the proper lubricant that you can use on those valves is plant-based oil instead of petroleum based oil

Oh wow! Thank you for making this video! I'll share it!

Thanks this was helpful ,, please get the bells rolled out , u can do it your self with a few tools not recamended i know , or find a brass guy that will do it cheaply if such a thing exsist tell him we sent U.

Thanks for this. I'm glad I came across your video. I've been thinking about buying a horn and playing again. This gives me inspiration.

I'm still watching this video but wanted to comment that I see you have a nice collection of wii u games. I too enjoy that system

Do you go to Jackson state

What's the difference between a marching baritone and a normal baritone?

For the mouthpiece receiver: If you use a Bach-equivalent the problem will be gone. The Bach mouthpieces are nice and snug in the receiver.

very nice

Thanks mate, that was very helpful. I'm a trumpet player and also love low brass. I've been wanting a Euph, but didn't want to drop $6K or whatever. Thanks.

Hii Music fam! let's support each ohters channel! Great video!

Looking forward to the new content! ✊🏿

I have a 2280

Which one has a more open and in tune lower register, I have a Blessing Artist model but it gets reall stuffy and sharp in lower regisrer especially 23, 13 and 123 valve combinations...

are Exchange tubas manufactured by jimbao?

The projection problem on the blessing might be because of the crushed bell

Great video helped me decide to get mine got a new silver 2280 that was store display for 1500

There are Bach stencil horns out there. Schiller.

Great review and playing--thank you. Do you know how this new model compares to an older King 2280? Basically, if I find an old one on eBay is it as good (or better or worse) than this one? Thanks

Since age out is pretty early is it actually worth it to buy one? Edit: Second suite in F went hard

I love 2nd suite in f

Would you recommend these horns over something like the JP274 or Wessex Dolce?
