Super horn showdown! ACB by Adams Coppernicus VS Adams A4 Limited!

[@caroljohnson8817]

Hello Trent! Great to see the Coppernicus on your channel again. I have one, if you remember, I’m in the Austin area. Is it possible to get those Saturn water valves on my horn?

So cool! Such awesome horns. The cool thing about your videos is that you are such an awesome and consistent player that we listeners really get a true sense of sound difference across so many horns you showcase. The back to back helps too! Coppernicus wins here for me. That A4 sure is pretty but so is the Coppernicus. Coppernicus also has such a gorgeous tone. When you hang back on it it just seems to have a much smoother character and more solid core/rounder sound. It is weird when you push it it focuses and brightens so well without losing that core or fatness. Chameleon for sure! Thanks for another great video!

is the bell on the Copernicus copper, or is it just copper plated?

My Coppernicus (the one on this video) is pure Silver. The Stock Coppernicus is a blend of a few alloys but we choose not to say exactly what %'s of each ;-)

The Adam's A4 sounds really nice as well as the Coppernicus. For me it's hard to say which one sounds better. To me the A4 sounds a bit more powerful in sound but, I'm still leaning on the Coppernicus to buy.

As a listener (you'll be getting different feedback at your end of the horn) the A4 is so much nicer sounding, it's got warmth and a rich texture, the Copernicus just sounds consistent.

I think the Coppernicus is consistently Awesome. But of course I am biased ;-) The A4 is a great horn just too much horn for me.

I had the pleasure of playing your Copernicus at the shop and the A4! Love them both. The Copernicus for me felt lighter, brighter, and had more crispness to it than the A4. The feel and sound of the A4 was broader and thicker. I love both of these horns! And like you said these horns are very sensitive to mouthpiece changes which allows you to change your sound for the situation. I absolutely love the A4 with your hybrid FX mouthpiece.

A4 best warm sound.

A4 wins for me - what a sound!!

[@austincustom]

It is an amazing trumpet for sure! Both of them are!
