Adams Piccolo Trumpet

The Adams Piccolo Trumpet is small in size, but big in stature. With the development of this piccolo, our instrument builders createdan instrument that is extremely balanced in terms of intonation and feels great in your hand. Developed in close collaboration with the very best trumpet players, the Adams piccolo offers an extended range that allows you to effortlessly play through the most difficult passages. Always as stable and accurate. Without a doubt, this is a wonderful addition to any trumpet player's collection.

The trigger mechanism on the Adams piccolo is the most ergonomic and functional tuning mechanism for piccolos. It's easy to manipulate and assures smooth adjustment while playing. While playing the instrument for the first time, you'll notice that the Adams valve's reputation (former Bauerfeind) is well deserved.
