TRF-23 Flugelhorn : Great horn for a bargain.
Is it Schagerl or a Gerd? No, but it is a nice reasonably priced horn that performs pretty well. Intonation seems solid, more me than the horn. Mouthpiece is ok and case is basic… the sound is pretty good and the have FAST service and an enjoyable horn. You can’t have mine back…
This horn could easily be played in a band/ensemble with other instruments..
I am, if it is not obvious, pleasantly surprised.
Lubed the valves and they are fast and quiet. Really for a horn I could find no reviews, did see some for the perinet valves horns and so I just took a chance… glad I did.
Intonation and sound improved with the JK 4D and Denis Wick 2BFD later ordered.. Provided 2 different sounds with similar feel and both are a serious improvement. After which I updating my review and improving the scores…. Nice horn! Still can have mine!
