2023 Benchmark Orion Bb trumpet
This is a Benchmark Orion Bb trumpet which was hand-made in 2023. Benchmark Trumpets are handmade by Ron Glynn located in Illinois.
More about Benchmark can found on at their website:
This particular trumpet has a yellow-brass bell and leadpipe with nickel-silver outer slide tubes and is raw brass. The bore is medium-large (.458). It has a 529 bell, which is the tightest taper offered by Benchmark, which “features a modified Bessel horn shape, providing flexibility for various mouthpieces and playing styles. It can deliver a dark, mellow tone or bright, vibrant notes depending on your preferences.” In comparison to the other bells that Benchmark offers, the closest comparison would be to a Bach 43 bell.
The leadpipe venturi is .347”.
The fit and finish on this trumpet is excellent, as you would expect from a hand-crafted instrument.
It has one tiny ding on the bell, but otherwise shows no signs of wear and as you would expect, plays very well.
It comes in a vintage leather gig bag in very good condition.
