Yamaha YFH-8310Z Professional Bb Flugelhorn - Silver-plated
Bb Flugelhorn with Silver-plated Body, 1-piece Yellow Brass Bell, Gold Brass Leadpipe, and Monel Alloy Valves
Traditional Flugelhorn Sound, Modern Performance
Inspired by the legendary Bobby Shew, the Yamaha YFH-8310ZS combines the rich tonal character of traditional flugels with modern playability and rock-solid intonation. The YFH-8310ZS's 1-piece, 6-inch, yellow brass bell projects a brilliant, complex sound. What's more, this cutting-edge horn includes a connection tube between the leadpipe and the valve casing to optimize air resistance for natural, expressive sonic coloration. The YFH-8310ZS's upper register feels effortless. In fact, it slots so well that you'll forget you're playing a flugelhorn. You also get corrosion-resistant monel alloy valves. You'll appreciate how easy it is to fine-tune the YFH-8310ZS's blowing resistance, in addition to how its silver-plated brass body lends a brilliant sheen to every note you play. Beyond that, the YFH-8310ZS's third valve slide trigger accommodates a wide range of hand sizes. If you're searching for a pro-level Yamaha flugelhorn, the YFH-8310ZS is a top contender.
Tailor-made for discriminating players
Serious flugel players searching for a versatile horn will find much to appreciate in the YFH-8310ZS. This medium-weight flugelhorn boasts a connection tube between the leadpipe and the valve casing, thereby optimizing air resistance to let you color your sound any way you want. Beyond that, its .413-inch bore creates an ear-grabbing sound that's impossible to ignore. The YFH-8310ZS's rugged monel alloy valves yield smooth, quick action and excellent resistance to impact damage, moisture, and air leaks.
Hand-hammered 1-piece bell
Constructed from yellow brass, the Yamaha YFH-8310ZS's 1-piece, 6-inch bell contributes greatly to its agile response and bright, complex sound. The YFH-8310ZS features a silver-plated brass body, which produces an ear-grabbing brilliant quality. At Sweetwater, we've also found that this flugelhorn's silver-plated finish gives it a gleaming, polished look.
