Schilke S42L: SterlingSilver & Brass Bells!

[@IndianOutlaw1870]

That first song starts off like the main theme to the film Exodus (1960). A great tune.

You are right! I hadn't notieced that. :) I think I tried the Exodus theme song for one of my vids once. Great song - with a really big range. What a song though. :) Great comment! :)

Jonathan I thought the best sound was the sterling silver bell with the GR64 piece. How does this Schilke compare to a Yamaha 8310z ?

Funny, but I was thinking the same thing earlier today; a Z and this horn. This horn is, to me, far more open than either Z I've had (and I've had two of them). This feels a bit heavier, but I think the L (Tuneable) Schilke horns have a little more metal added to support them. Anyway, this trumpet has, to me, a heavier, more solid feel and sound. I'm not dissing the Z horns - I really like them, but to me they're a little lighter in sound and weight (such great horns though). Somewere back about 16 months or so I did a review of a Z and a Schilke B6; now those two were quite similar. Great question, and thanks for listening. :)
