 | Lightweight trumpets Can anyone tell me which models of popular trumpet brands are lightweight horns? I've only been able to find Bach Strad LT180's as specifically lightweight. Thanks.

  | Re: Lightweight trumpets Callichio, Schilke, Benge, and Getzen were (are) the classic "lightweight" trumpets.

| Re: Lightweight trumpets The claude gordon selmers are about the lightest horn out there. That was one of his main designs in developing the CG selmer. The horn weighs 2lbs and that is with the mouthpiece. They are so light you could juggle it if you wanted too. Gives it a nice bright sound. |
