Many players and teachers advocate buzzing the mouthpiece away from the horn as an effective way to develop air flow control, sound quality, and attacks. The Buzz Aid holds the mouthpiece in the proper relationship to the horn and your embouchure. Our hand-made, all brass Buzz Aid improves over the more commonly available plastic models in several important respects: They're durable (they just don't break), they feel very stable, they can be used to hold a mouthpipe on the horn for testing purposes, and they fit Monette STC1 mouthpieces.

The Buzz Extension Resistance Piece helps to hone the part of everyone's playing that is basically the most important of all, buzzing of the lips. The "BERP" attaches to the leadpipe, and the mouthpiece is placed into it. Then as you play, the air is expelled out the sides of the BERP, not into the leadpipe. This allows you to train the embouchure to the desired pitch.

Lightweight buttons reduce the mass and inertia of the piston, resulting in a noticeably quicker valve action. Only availible in silver plate.

Since their introduction in 1989, CCAPS have proven to be the best looking, best performing heavy valve cap on the market. At 1 oz. each, CCAPS have enough mass to improve the response of any trumpet.

By adding mass to the entry and exit points on the valve section of your horn, the trumpet's optimal resistance can be obtained. The weight of the CCAPS in the proper position on the valve section can provide a denser, more centered sound, along with a more stable harmonic series. Overall response and attacks are more even throughout the range of the horn as well. Used alone or in conjunction with the supplied shims and O-rings you can find the best combination for you. Following is a list of brands for each numbered cap: #1: Yamaha(American),King,Holton,Benge 90 #2: Bach Stradivarius #3: Schilke, Benge(old),Most Kanstul produced trumpets #4: Getzen, Stomvi Only available in silver plate.

This set of pure neoprene O-rings is the perfect size for use with trumpet bottom caps. Adjusting the tension of the bottom caps can greatly influence the freedom and response of the instrument. (Click the link above for more information.)
