CarolBrass Baro Model Trumpet

The CarolBrass Baro Model Trumpet (CTR-5280L-GLT(D)-Bb-SL Euro Bell) is an artist model produced for Cuban/Canadian trumpeter Alexis Baro. Based on the original Euro Bell design (CTR-5280L-GLT(D)-Bb-L) it features CarolBrass’ curved “Euro Bell” design which offers excellent projection. Medium-large bore with large throat, light weight, gold brass bell and twin tube leadpipe, the Baro model has a heavy mouthpiece receiver and heavy top and bottom valve caps.

All 5xxx trumpets are supplied with two main tuning slides – one square (traditional feel) and one rounded (for less resistance).

The Carol Brass EuroBell “Baro Model” is, if not the best, one of the most complete horns I’ve played , the original EuroBell model its a great horn at every level , from the design to the technical specs… with a few modifications, we took the original to another sound dimension and level , with the “Baro Model “ we have achieved a wider tonal range , perfect for players that navigate in a variety of musical environments from Pop to Jazz to Latin … this horn has the capability of opening up with a bright tone in the higher register as well as to mellow down in the middle and opening to a wide bottom range… as a multi style player, the response of the instrument and the tone quality in every musical environment I play is the most important aspect I look for in a Horn… I believe the Carol Brass EuroBell “Baro Model” has everything a professional can ask for in a Trumpet, from style to sound to response , allowing the player to develop itself from within…!!
