playLITE Hybrid Flugel Horn with Fast Action Aluminium Lined Valves
Traditional Shaped Plastic Body with Authentic Sound and Projection
The playLITE hybrid flugel horn by Gear4music in black is a lightweight alternative to the traditional brass flugel horn. Featuring a ABS plastic body, this instrument only weighs 350g, making it ideal for younger performers as well as professionals looking for a lightweight alternative. The aluminium lined valves are fast acting and give a great feel. The playLITE flugel horn remains authentic, featuring a traditionally shaped body that has a realistic tone with a clear projection. Included with the playLITE flugel horn is a plastic mouthpiece and hard foam case.
Colourful and Lightweight ABS Body
This instrument not only plays brilliantly, but also looks great! Featuring a sleek black ABS body, this instrument only weighs 350g. This is ideal for younger performers who would otherwise struggle to hold a brass flugel horn for prolonged periods of time, as well as advanced players who are searching for a lightweight instrument. The body of this instrument creates an authentic sound, comparable to that of a brass flugel horn, meaning it can be easily used in ensembles as well as for individual performances.
Aluminium Valves and Adjustable Slides
The playLITE flugel horn gets its hybrid title from its great feeling, fast action aluminium valves. The plastic moulded valve case has an aluminium collar built in to provide a tight and precise seal, meaning no air leakage and a better projection. As a result, the instrument is very hard wearing and will withstand the rigours of continued use. The aluminium valves are also easy to maintain as this instrument can be lubricated with any standard brass valve oil used on conventional instruments. The already accurate intonation of this flugel horn is aided further with fully adjustable valve slides, as well as a main slide for general tuning.
