Eastman EEP526GS Professional Series Compensating Euphonium Silver Yellow Brass Bell

Eastman's EEP526GS Professional Series Compensating Euphonium gives discerning musicians an instrument worthy of their talent. Pitched in Bb, this euphonium features a 12" yellow brass bell and 0.610" rose brass leadpipe for a warm, robust tone packed with rich overtones. Eastman went to great lengths to ensure the EEP526GS plays in tune across all registers, equipping it with a fully compensating valve system. The EEP526GS also provides a silky smooth feel under the fingers thanks to stainless steel pistons and precise manufacturing tolerances.

Fully Compensating Valve System Delivers Impeccable Intonation

Euphoniums are known for intonation issues in the lower register, but not the EEP526GS. It features a fully compensating valve system that enables accurate intonation throughout the instrument's range. The compensating valves help the EEP526GS blend beautifully with accompanying low brass and the rest of the ensemble. They also give euphoniumists the confidence to explore the instrument's lowest notes.

12-Inch Yellow Brass Bell Produces a Warm, Powerful Tone

The EEP526GS gets its rich voice from a 12" yellow brass bell. Yellow brass bells are prized for their warm, resonant tone and a bell of this size provides ample projection and a quick response. Whether performing a delicate solo passage or blasting out a fortissimo entrance, the EEP526GS euphonium's yellow brass bell is up to the task. Its upright orientation also allows its tone to envelop the audience.

Rose Brass Leadpipe and Silver-Plated Finish Enhance the Sound

In addition to its yellow brass bell, the EEP526GS euphonium features a 0.610" rose brass leadpipe. Rose brass alloys produce a darker timbre with more body than yellow brass. The rose brass leadpipe gives the EEP526GS a rich, robust voice. A silver-plated finish adorns the euphonium, providing a subtle brightness to the overall sound. The silver plating also resists tarnish, keeping the EEP526GS looking as new as the day it left the Eastman factory.

Additional Features

The EEP526GS euphonium's stainless steel pistons deliver exceptionally smooth playability across all four valves. It also includes a mouthpiece and durable case, providing everything needed to start making music.
