Here's a GORGEOUS Shires Model BLW Professional Trumpet.

The S.E. Shires Model BLW trumpet features a lightweight version of the broad “B” bell that allows for even faster response and an open high register. Brilliant and nimble, it navigates technical passages with flexibility and ease. It sounds warm, round, and intimate at when played softly, but sizzles at high volumes and projects easily to the back of any performance space. The openness of the standard W leadpipe provides a free, stable-slotting, but flexible blow; its relatively fast taper adds brilliance to the characteristic warmth of the B bell taper. Yellow-brass balusters and lightweight yellow brass valve caps add depth and immediacy to the sound. The combination of playability and warmth unique to the BLW make it one of the few lightweight trumpets to appeal to lead and classical players alike. This particular instrument features the one piece hand hammered 'B' bell in lightweight yellow brass and a standard bead for a very responsive instrument. This instrument is in excellent used condition and plays extremely well. No wear to plating, minimal wear to pistons. Comes in the original Shires case in good condition. Ready to take to the gig!
