Easiest playing flugel ever
Without any doubt, the easiest playing flugelhorn I've ever played. Comes with two leadpipes (numbers 2 and 3), that stand for large (German type) and small (Bach type) shanks. The best possible sound for me was obtained with a Bach 1 1/2 CFL mouthpiece and the no. 3 shank. Intonation is spot-on, really lightweight and well balanced in the hand. However, the main drawback is that the sound is definitely not on the dark side.
