In the tradition of the British Brass Band, the XA1B has a vintage English short model Shepherd’s crook cornet design with a tighter wrap that promotes a dark, rich and round sound, plus a wonderful response at lower dynamic levels.

This cornet is even in color and intonation in all registers with articulation clarity from high to low and good projection at the highest volume. The addition of the Beryllium bell offers a lighter massto the bell, allowing for even greater projection, brilliance and response in all registers.
