Adams A7 Trumpet
The A7 Trumpet is a large bore trumpet (12mm) that is suited for a player who wants a very open blowing instrument. The A7 was a direct result of extensive work with Adams Artist Guido Segers, solo-trumpet player of the Munich Philharmonic. The instrument features the largest of the Adams leadpipes (Adams 2L). It is primarily geared towards symphonic playing but has also proved popular with jazz soloists.
