![]() | I had the Light and Heavy versions for a good while on trial. Of the 2, I would have to say the Light was better to me. It is definately an eye catcher. I will say that some others played this horn...and did some blind testing while several folks went out of the room we were in to listen. Ironically, out of about 4-5 horns, people kept saying this Fides sounded the best. I did not get to play it on a gig setting. However, I'm sure it would be right at home against other models. Tuning seemed to be just fine...no quirky notes. Pretty even blow across registers. There is a guy on the NYTC site (Tim Doorn) who plays these. His name on here (and/or on Trumpet Herald) is gospel tim. You can do a search for him...sure he would be happy to give you his thoughts about the horn. You are doing the best thing by checking them out thru NYTC.

![]() | Re: Anyone played a Fides Symphony Lite? Top call trumpeter Luis Aquino performs on the Fides lightweight & heavy Bb trumpet. His website is www.luisaquino.com. You can also see him perform through YouTube with Ricky Martin on songs "La Bomba" & "Lola, Lola". Luis does have an email address if you have questions about this Fides trumpet; he's a cool guy. Buy the way, I'm considering the lightweight model myself. Frank Last edited by Mariachi; 08-05-2008 at 04:59 PM. Reason: Missed a word. |
