Best Bang for your buck

The FH - 900J Raw Jazz has a nice Flugelhorn buttery sound pared with a Denis Wick 3FL…solidly built, well finished and a total looker ready to make you shine on any gig, jam session or simply jamming in the quietness of your living room. Highly recommended

Outstanding

Great Flugelhorn!

Super well made with great tone. I can honestly say you will not be disappointed if it is like mine. A fraction of the price for an excellent horn.

unbelievable quality!

Purchased this as I was doing some research and came across a few youtube videos with some people that have been happy with this flugelhorn. I am so glad I purchased this one. Do not let the price fool you. This is a beautiful instrument and plays so nicely. I got the unvarnished model so it will age nicely. I just purchased one of their pocket trumpets too. Can’t wait to receive that.

A great surprise!

I am a flugelhorn player inside and out. The trumpet is second to playing the flugelhorn in my life. However, I can play both with equal proficiency. I was nervous with this purchase due to not having the privilege to play it before I purchase it. But I took an chance and I am very pleased to say I have hit the jackpot with this one! I wanted a piston flugelhorn that was more flugel than the cerveny flugelhorns I have been playing on for years. Something that was more dark and cloudy for more expression in the music I play. This flugelhorn is everything I could have wanted and more. The overall voice(sound) is cloudy and very flugel. I played it legato and presto and I am very happy to have this in my flugelhorn family. It is number one with all of my legato/beautiful music I play. My Cerveny rotary valve is for my Baroque music, but this is for serenading and controlling expressions within the music that changes dynamics from soft,gentle, and expressive. I use a Bach B5 flugel and a Denis Wick 4FL and I am singing to the heavens with dark and cloudy love!! Overall response, features, SOUND, and quality is top quality to me. I would pay 2 to 3 thousand easy if I know how it played, but this price is fantastic!

As good as a flugelhorn costing ten times the price!

I've played flugelhorn for a good while now and took a chance on this one, selling my old flugelhorn: I can honestly say I can't fault it. Had it ages now and played it in Swing Band and used it for solo recitals. Beautiful tone. I have invested in a good mouthpiece. Great response and very in tune right throughout. Would definitely recommend this instrument. If I didn't know the price I would've said it had cost ten times as much. Honest.

I generally play Euphonium. ( Baritone) and have always loved the sound of the Flugelhorn. This one is really strong and will last. It is away at the moment having it Brushed Matt Lacquer. I'm sure it will come back even better!!!

Superb Flugelhorn!

I purchased this Flugelhorn to play in my jazz/blues/funk band and am hugely impressed. It has a lovely rich tone, good response and easily plays the upper range/register.

I have been using the mouthpiece supplied with the instrument and am really happy with that too. It's a very easy blow.

It's a pretty heavy instrument, but I like the weight distribution. It feels good to hold, solid.

Lovely finish. Exactly what I was looking for.

Overall, couldn't be happier. Superb value for money.
