For sale is a rare, professional Yamaha Custom YTR-9830 Bb/A piccolo trumpet (serial number: 010726, early 1990s). I am the original owner. For years, this instrument served as my primary piccolo trumpet during my career as principal trumpet of the Polish Radio Orchestra in Warsaw.
The instrument hails from the "golden era" of Yamaha's Hamamatsu workshop and was predominantly handcrafted by master artisans.
Condition of the instrument:
• Visual & Technical: Very good condition. The original silver plating is 100% intact with no wear or rub-throughs. The instrument has only two micro-dings on the bell section near the 1st and 2nd valve. These are purely cosmetic and have absolutely no impact on the sound, resonance, or intonation. The trumpet has NO history of repairs, soldering, or dent removals.Mechanics: Valves operate smoothly, with excellent compression across all four pistons. All slides move flawlessly.Accessories: Complete set of original leadpipes for Bb and A tuning, for standard trumpet shank mouthpieces.
Case: Original Yamaha Custom hard case in near mint condition.
