The GETZEN Custom Reserve 4895 Flugelhorn is a masterpiece of design and engineering, pushing the boundaries of sound performance. Carefully manufactured in the USA, this flugelhorn embodies excellence, combining the best of both worlds: the characteristics of vintage flugelhorns that have shaped the history of this instrument and modern technological advancements for exceptional tonality.

The Custom Reserve's two-piece bell, with a diameter of 6.5 inches (165 mm), is precisely engineered and acoustically treated at the bend for unique projection and a magnificent breadth of sound, allowing the musician to express themselves with great artistic freedom.

The flugelhorn's bore, measuring 0.42 inches (10.67 mm) in diameter, is crafted in bronze to deliver a round and personal sound. The nickel silver ferrules ensure ultra-efficient effort transfer between tubes, guaranteeing a quick and precise response. Moreover, the Custom Reserve comes with three interchangeable leadpipes in yellow brass, gold brass, and nickel silver, allowing musicians to customize their sound experience according to their preferences and playing style.

The Custom Reserve's bronze valve block is a technical feat, providing an intimate and warm tonality with a lightning-fast response. The nickel silver spacers efficiently transfer energy between pistons, offering exceptional fluidity and precision.

The slides of the Custom Reserve are also unique. The vertical 1st and 3rd slides provide a consistent feel across all piston chambers, offering remarkable ease of play. Additionally, the new third slide trigger with an assembled ebony sleeve provides optimal comfort and incredibly smooth action.

The construction of the Custom Reserve is meticulously thought out to optimize performance and musician comfort. The spacers are designed to balance the instrument, regardless of playing position, ensuring a uniform response across the range. The caps and bottom caps are carefully designed to balance the instrument's sound, offering a rich and nuanced tonal palette.

Included is an exclusive fiberglass case, light and sturdy, combining modern design with optimal protection for the instrument. This case also features removable straps and meets the size requirements for carry-on luggage for most domestic airlines.
