Shires Q Series – silver-plated and with a hand-hammered bell of the kind you usually only find on much more expensive instruments. It sits well balanced in your hands, responds easily and sounds clear and powerful without turning harsh in the upper register. It feels equally at home in a concert band, a brass band or as a solo instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart of it is the two-piece, hand-hammered 290 mm (11.5\") bell in standard-gauge yellow brass with unsoldered rim wire. This makes the sound open and sustaining – the Q41S projects effortlessly across its entire range. The compensating system with three top-action stainless steel piston valves and a side-mounted fourth valve ensures clean intonation in the low register.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eS.E. Shires has been building brass instruments in Massachusetts for the world's great orchestras since the 1990s. The Q Series brings this expertise into a price range for ambitious amateurs, students and professionals: the same design principles, the same sound concept, built to Shires specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eKey of Bb, compensating, 3+1 valves\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e3 top-action stainless steel piston valves + 1 side-mounted valve\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eBore 15 mm (.591\") \/ 17 mm (.669\") on the 4th valve\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eBell 290 mm (11.5\"), two-piece, hand-hammered, standard-gauge yellow brass, unsoldered rim wire\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eNickel silver leadpipe, large shank mouthpiece receiver\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eFinish: silver-plated\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncluded: mouthpiece, Ultra-Pure care kit, deluxe backpack case\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery instrument passes through my master workshop before shipping: valves, slides and airtightness are checked, so you can start playing right away.
