The X4 Traditional Custom Series trumpet is the largest, free blowing Schilke Bb trumpet available. The extra-large bore and large throat bell makes this trumpet extremely open, with a large sound and excellent projection.

The X4 trumpet is available in three variations—a fixed yellow brass bell, a fixed beryllium copper bell, and a tunable yellow brass bell—each designed to customize the instrument performance to the player.

  • X4B – Beryllium copper fixed bell. Large throat #1 bell made from an extremely lightweight copper, this bell offers a more direct, compact projection.
  • X4L – Tunable yellow brass bell. The detachable bell design allows tuning from the bell, to offer a more open, free feeling in the upper register. With less bracing, the response feels quicker by allowing the bell to resonate more to improve projection.
