Tilted bell

All Feniks trumpets are available with a 10' degrees tilted bell.

This option is very useful for players that tend to play down in the stand, especially when they have to sight read. With a slightly tilted bell you will be able to play over the stand into the audience while you still can read your parts without any problem. It's not the same as a bended mouthpiece! With a bended mouthpiece you change the pressure against your lips and is preffered with players having an overbite. With a tilted bell you just keep your bell horizontal while playing a little downwards.

Another advantage, especially when you're playing the leadtrumpet, are the many thanks you'll get from the trombone players and saxophone players in front of you for playing over their heads, instead of right into their ears.
