The B2 Traditional Custom Series trumpet is a medium large bore instrument that is the perfect choice for the performer that desires more resistance than the B1. Featuring a medium-large bore and medium throat bell with a #3 taper which is faster to the valve section. The bore and bell combination still plays broad and bright, yet with more control than the model B5.

The B2 trumpet is available in four variations—a fixed yellow brass bell, a fixed beryllium copper bell, a tunable yellow brass bell, and a tunable beryllium copper bell—each designed to customize the instrument performance to the player.
