QuebecSOP Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Recently while surfing on internet, I saw the Schiller marching brass. They are cheap, really cheap, and I wonder if anybody tryed them or heard about? There is the link: Schiller Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieMonster Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I don't think I would ever buy an instrument that makes something that looks like Also, I do not know what kind of inferior half-brain I must have, but I do not possibly see the benefit of a horn that enters in the third valve for apparently no reason. Not to mention the absence of a kick-back stirrup for any sense of tuning combinations with the first valve. At look alone, I would say that at best it plays like nothing you have ever played before. At worst, I would say I would rather be playing a Blessing again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornsUp Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 It's made in Germany, and you know the Germans make good stuff The infamous Smith bugles were made in Germany. Look at the specs. A .488 bore mello, humongous. A .527 bore euph, dinky. I'd be very suspicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I've never seen any of these in person or at any dealer. I am rather skeptical of a horn I can't go try myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
