Brand new Del Quadro Dorotea Bb trumpet in raw brass with C2 leadpipe, made in the USA by Mike Del Quadro. DQ's brighter version of his Grande Campana! The big bell gives you a broad, colorful sound and the flat bell bead helps you actually hear yourself. No case, but it comes with an absolutely gorgeous dustbag handmade in Las Vegas by Mike's wife Maggie.
FROM DEL QUADRO:
The initial ideas behind this design concept were for players who like the Grande Campana but want a little brighter of a sound. The brass bell on these trumpets is just as large as the Grande Campana.
Initial designs for this instrument used the G leadpipe, just like the Grande Campana, essentially making the bell the only difference between the two models. As more people have played this instrument since its initial conception in the spring of 2020, we find the C2 leadpipe to be an equally popular option on these trumpets.
This trumpet is named after my Pitbull mix, Dot, who we affectionately call “Dorothy”. Dorothy has been known to howl when we are play-testing new trumpets. If she starts singing along, we know we have a good one.
