Jothcra Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 So I was browsing Woodwind Brasswind today and I happened upon the marching brass section, where I was very surprised to see trumpets, mellos, marching horns, baritones, euphoniums, and marching tubas by Adams. I didn't make any connection to the company that makes concert percussion until I went to their Facebook page and found a few photos of their marching brass lineup at NAMM, alongside some marimbas and other percussion instruments. It looks like these horns are "handcrafted in Holland" and they cost between 500-1000 dollars more than the next most expensive horns from Yamaha, King, and Kanstul. They seem to have partnered with Pearl's marching percussion division. Does anyone have any experience with these horns? I think they're quite new and it seems like the cost would be prohibitive for people looking to adopt a full line of these things. I'm very interested to hear what a full DCI hornline would sound like on these horns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know of at least one top-ranked brass line looking at using Adams brass in the future, possibly as early as next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
