The A2’s larger mouthpipe appeals to players seeking for a more open feel and response, and who don’t mind filling the horn to get it. It is a fantastic trumpet for strong players, giving back every bit of push that goes into it. The A2 features a fixed receiver that lends a great sense of place to the instrument. It is equally suited for jazz, commercial and classical music, and is a popular choice for modern trumpet players who want a versatile horn in terms of sound shape and articulation.
