    New Adams Euph

    After a long wait, it has finally made it. It was definitely worth it. It's an E2 .6mm. Sterling silver bell and tuning trigger with a brushed finish. It plays as great as it looks

    It is gorgeous! I've always liked the brushed finish...fingerprints are less of an issue.

    Congrats and enjoy!

        Beautiful horn! How can you beat a work of art that plays like a dream (not that I would personally know but someday will make it to a regional conference and try one). Congratulations!

          Beautiful horn. How did you come to choose that configuration?

            And while you're at it, what is the deal with the top and bottom valve caps? They look pretty stout.

                That's part of the E2 setup. It has the heavy caps,buttons and bottoms. Typically the E2 would be .80 gauge but it's a special model.

                  The configuration is the same as what I played on in college, the only difference is the two tone brushed finish. I figured there was no reason to mess with a good thing!

                    I wish I could find a place or conference near Edmonton, Alberta that stocked a few Adams horns, I'd love to try a few out. Your horn looks amazing!
