FROM YAMAHA:
IT'S NOT JUST A TRUMPET. IT'S A LEGACY.
The Xeno Series represents a fusion of craftsmanship that involves outstanding instrument design, advanced technology, and the experience, talent, and dreams of respected artists around the world. These are trumpets that inspire. Their outstanding power and projection combines with refined resistance and response for extraordinary tonal flexibility. This limited edition "Kangakki" version further represents our dedication and passion for music.
Based on the acclaimed second generation Xeno trumpet line, this one-of-a-kind trumpet is customized with a proprietary cryogenic acoustic treatment performed by Yamaha master technicians at the Los Angeles atelier. Last, but not least, the special "Kangakki" bell engraving reinforces our commitment to creating the highest quality instruments for musicians of any level. Because of the attention to detail and painstaking craftsmanship needed to manufacture these trumpets, only a very limited amount will be made available in the United States.
Cryogenic Resonance Restoration
This unique, proprietary acoustic treatment was pioneered by Yamaha master technician and Atelier team member Wayne Tanabe. "Cryo" treatment involves subjecting the instrument to extreme cold temperatures which can enhance the instrument's ability to resonate.
Special "Kangakki" engraving
The YTR-8335IIRKG-LN has the unique "Kangakki" engraving on the bell. The term "Kangakki" means "Wind Instrument" in Japanese and is a homage to the rich history of Yamaha wind instrument design.
New Bell Design
A new bell design contributes to optimum resistance for a powerful tonal core and accurate slotting. The new design also enhances playability in the upper register.
Thinner Valve casing and pistons, modified angle of branch tube (knuckle)
Thinner valve casing and pistons, as well as the modified angle of the branch tube (knuckle) result in improved response and provide the performer with an ideal blowing resistance.
1st Slide Button
The button on the 1st slide serves to fine-tune the blowing resistance for optimum control.
Improved Water Key
The height of the main slide water key gutter has been increased for optimum resistance, and the ends of the water key spring have been curled for improved response.
Case
Double case with backpack straps.
