not very useful

John Cucco 07.05.2018

Used this adapter to play a Stradivarius Bach trumpet with a 1-1/2C Bach flugelhorn mouthpiece, to achieve a warmer flugelhorn-style sound.

CON
The final lenght of the mouthpiece (mouthpiece + adapter) is far too long compared to a standard trumpet mouthpiece and so the pitch will fall down. Also it will feel very unbalanced and the wind flow will be terribly influenced by this, it will be very hard not to crack any note, unless you use a very small amount of air and really slow wind.

PRO
It won't damage a trumpet pipe and will fit well, also the mouthpiece will fit well in the adapter.

CONCLUSION
Maybe with other gear will do just fine, but with my Bb Stradivarius New York and 1-1/2 C FL mouthpiece worked terribly and i couldn't use it like a wanted.

It does not work with Antoine Courtois mouthpieces

DelCorte 13.05.2021

It does not work with Antoine Courtois mouthpieces, it stays big, and the mouthpieces are loose. They should publish the diameter measurements. It is also plastic, not metal. Too expensive for what it is.

Unfortunately there was an error. Please try again later.

Praktisch aber noch sehr ausbaufähig!

+ amerikanisches Flügelhornmundstück passt auf die Trompete

- Als erstes viel mir nach dem Auspacken die nicht perfekte Verarbeitung auf (die Gravur oben an dem sechseck). An der Versilberung gibt es allerdings nix zu meckern.
- Nach den ersten paar tönen musste ich leider feststellen, dass die Intonation sich leider wesentlich verschlechtert.

Ich benutze den Adapter momentan nur noch als B.E.R.P.-halter damit ich diesen nicht immer von meiner Trompete hin-und wegschrauben muss.

Fazit:
Ich habe den Adapter behalten und nicht zurückgeschickt, würde ihn aber nicht weiterempfehlen aufgrund der schlechten Intonation (fast einen kompletten Halbton). Die 29 Euro sind irgendwo anderst bei Thomann sicherlich besser angelegt;)
Ansonsten wie immer TOP-Service von Thomann
