Martin Eberle about the Schagerl B-Trumpet LU5A

‘Since I have been able to call trumpet playing my profession, I have played exclusively on vintage trumpets and, despite numerous other attempts, I have only been able to find and produce what corresponds to my idea of tone, my sound. I almost didn't think it was possible to find a new, well intonating and functioning instrument with a vintage character - until I played the LU5A for the first time. In my opinion, this master instrument from Schagerl combines the best of both worlds and is the perfect trumpet for me. Thank you!’
