The key phrase Trevor James uses often is not a tagline or a slogan but was the design objective for the Trevor James renaissance range of brass instruments. Trevor James has set a new standard in brass manufacture and design, making sure that all instruments are built to perform to the musician's needs. The cupronickel (copper-nickel alloy) slides are a great addition to the instrument due to their corrosion resistant properties. This way the slides will be easy to move, even if left for a long period of time
The yellow brass provides a nice balance between the various playing parameters which makes it the most widely used and commonly played alloy in the world. A standard mix of 70 percent copper and 30 percent zinc helps to provide a focused sound with a solid core with very little resistance. The silver plate finish is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it also contributes to the brightness of the sound
The Trevor James cornet comes with everything you need to get started. A backpack-style case is included for protecting your instrument while travelling, and features a large side pocket designed to hold all your sheet music. Also included is the Trevor James 4B mouthpiece so you can waste no time getting started with your cornet.
The new renaissance range from Trevor James has set a new standard in brass manufacture. These instruments have been uniquely designed and engineered to integrate perfectly into a British brass band. The renaissance range is ideal for those looking for a step-up from a starter instrument and wanting to progress their playing.
With over 25 years of design experience, Trevor James knows how important instrument design is in helping players achieve their musical goals. To this end, Trevor James has spent several years working closely with brass players and engineers to determine the features required to create a range of brass instruments which will enable players to reach these personal targets.
