Ultimate Trumpet Mouthpiece Demo on the ACB by Adams Coppernicus Trumpet with Trent Austin

Austin Custom Brass by Adams Coppernicus Trumpet ultimate mouthpiece demo!
Have you ever wondered why I love the ACB by Adams Coppernicus so much? Here's a demo to show the horn's crazy versatility with a 6-mouthpiece test!
Here are the mouthpieces I used:
Schagerl ACB Custom 1C (ish)
ACB TA-FX super deep hybrid
ACB TA-TF deep hybrid
ACB Ta1-CS (Around a 3/4 C in a "Bach world")
ACB Pops (based on one of Louis Armstrong's old pieces)
ACB TA-Z
Check out these mouthpieces on our web store:

If you have any questions email us at [e-mail] or call our Mouthpiece Hotline [phone]
Now switching so quickly between mouthpieces isn't the easiest thing to do but I wanted to provide an honest 1st-take of everything so I just went from one to the next in one take. Let us know your favorite in the comments!

The Apredato 1C was my favourite, beautiful tone.

[@nacdaddy5591]

In one word, WOW, to horn and playing!!! I like the first and Pops mouthpieces best.

[@MihaiSorohan]

Beautiful instrument. With the first mouthpiece sounded very much like a flugelhorn, at least to my ears. Beautiful playing.

[@austincustom]

Thank you! I love the versatility of this horn!

[@Monkey-ut7ke]

Flugelhorn is what came to mind immediately with the deep mouthpiece

[@anjolielanel990]

Great sounding horn and I really like the first mouthpiece and the TAZ as well. Thanks for the demo. It was an eye opener

[@ronrobbins2737]

"Line for Lyons," recognize that great underrated standard, and what an awesome horn and horn-PLAYER man !

[@floriangro7662]

Man, thats how a jazz trumpet has to sound, great :D

[@afoot4silver800]

In my humble opinion this is your best audio by far. Not as "dead"

[@bruin4937]

Trent, that's an *incredible* sounding horn - beautifully rich, creamy sounding, spot-on intonation/pitch, apparently really nice slotting, too. You really demonstrated its versatility by switching out your mpcs. Super-fine horn.

[@austincustom]

Yes I love how incredibly versatile this instrument is!

[@pietricsdurieux2371]

What a beautiful trumpet with such a beautiful sound!!

[@ChaplainAcosta]

That's a flumpet, a flugelhorn in a trumpet-like body. Beautiful, mellow, lush, smooth sound. That finish is absolutely the most beautiful thing I've ever seen on a trumpet. That would be awesome in 4 valves.

[@jeffmckeown9639]

That is the most beautiful trumpet I've ever heard. The 1C had me frozen.

[@edstud1]

Beautiful sounding horn! Very mellow sound!

[@austincustom]

Many thanks!

[@NickPhillipsJazz]

Wow! Great sounding horn. I favor a warm, round tone and this horn definitely has it. Thanks for the demo with the various mouthpieces.

[@MF-hq9mq]

What a beautiful trumpet, I love the mellow sound you get out of it, especially with the 1C, though no doubt that’s also due to your great playing!

[@austincustom]

Thank you for checking out the video! I do love the Apredato hybrid we have. We hope to offer it soon to our customers (we do have the Schagerl Apredato pieces already for sale at the shop).

[@trevorpope1913]

Such a fantastic player like you sounds great on any mouthpiece.

[@austincustom]

That's very kind for you to say but trust me I can sound pretty bad on a lot of mouthpieces!

[@bach1958]

Beautiful sounding horn played by a master who can make that happen.

[@MichaelBrown1776]

My next Trumpet! Already have this in my Austin Custom Brass wishlist!

[@austincustom]

did you see the "A-stock" model we have? www.austincustombrass.biz/a-stock-new-coppernicus-austin-custom-brass-by-adams-trumpet-in-copper/ (great price on that one!)

[@blainekelley816]

Great Vid, Trent! I loved the singing voice texture of the Apredato. TA-FX was nice and flugel-ish. TA-TF also very smooth ... it would be interesting to hear this one with you pushing a bit more, as all you played on it here was soft and mellow. The TA1-CS made me think that you could play that horn and MP combo in any setting = the most well-rounded and lovely trumpet sound. The Pops was stunning ... yes, you did sound like Satchmo! That one really has it's own fingerprint sound = wild! TAZ is what it is = lead time and bright! Sounds great, but unless you are playing lead I prefer the Apredato and TA1-CS the most. Coppericus is such a sweet horn too! Well done, Trent!

[@giuliocarmassi]

with the Schagerl it was custard cream for the angels!

[@leonelsilva9734]

What an oustanding musician!!!!!!!! Brilliant playing!...i bet he can make everything sound great, no mattet what he uses for an instrument!...great video! Superior trumpet playing...

[@austincustom]

Thank you for your kind words and making me smile!

[@eranswisa]

Very clesn and smooth modern trumpet sounds. Like a flugenhorn or cornet With first mouthpeacev. Also the pop.one was nice But this clean sound its more for classical music lead or for recording for film productions. like personally like vintage trumpet tone better ..

[@juhamakinen2804]

FX serius sounds amazing

[@eugeniosamon1019]

Genial. Me encanta ver tus videos y escuchar como tocas. Muchas gracias!!!!

[@edstud1]

I like all of the mouthpieces!

belle demonstration super trompettiste et super instrument une rolls!!!

[@nicholassteel5529]

Tremendous variety

[@pebblebeach8517]

Man that is a special sounding trumpet

[@austincustom]

Such a wonderful horn!

[@pebblebeach8517]

Great horn, super player ....oh the 1C 😀

[@austincustom]

Many thanks!

[@theboatman360]

Wow really nice.

[@bcmilatino0116]

Wow, im not sure how you mics and sound was set up but it really sounded great and i could hear the difference in the mouth pieces.

[@austincustom]

Awesome, thank you!

[@michaeldecharbert8914]

Super mouthpieces WOW!

[@austincustom]

thank you so much!

[@Monkey-ut7ke]

Wow, nice demo! You really warmed up for this one. :) The range of tones with the different mouthpieces was incredible I'm not sure I've ever heard such a difference before. Copper must be more resonant, able to showcase and flex the different shaped notes. I have a copper bell tube which starts to do that... Is any shepard's crook designed for sound or style?

[@jad1175]

Amazing playing. Stay safe

[@trinitycurry7183]

The second mouthpiece sounded like a saxophone!

[@pauldance7387]

Master trumpeter 🎺

[@BillSmith-rx9rm]

Those first two or three mouthpieces look like flugelhorn mouthpieces. you can get the same type of sound on any trumpet if you use that type of mouthpiece. In fact, although it doesn't fit properly, just for fun, I have put my flugelhorn mouthpiece into my B flat trumpet and it does indeed sound extremely warm.

[@MrStarbor]

AMAZING!!! TAZ is it a brand or model?

[@NguyenTran-ik3vh]

Amazing!

[@Apollo-nq1uw]

Hello Trent, thank you for this video. The horn sounds SO good. In this video, is that the "T" blank on both the TA-TF and TA1-CS? Can customers custom order this blank? Last, would you say the "T" blank has more"flexibility" than the Modern blank? Thank you for all that you provide the trumpet community!

[@austincustom]

We can make this blank but we want to make sure it fits your current setup. email us at [e-mail] and we can get this started for you! Thank you for your kind words and support!

[@ckeilah]

I love the color of your trumpet! What material and finish is that? Is it really that red/orange in person?

[@paulmullins4676]

When I get good in a couple more years I want one! What trumpet has the darkest sound in your opinion but with rich qualities? Thanks

[@ChildOfKingJesus57]

I play with an old but perfect condition COAST 2C mouth piece. I never hear anyone playing a 2C. What's the difference between my 2C and the 1C and 3C? I like it. I play a gorgeous deep rich sounding vintage King Liberty trumpet in art deco hand carved design from the late 20s -early 30s, that I inherited from my father in law. He played it in the band era in a brass group that played all King instraments, called the Kings of harmony, on a cruise ship to England. The sound is incredible and the Art deco design is gorgeous with hand carved desings. It's beautiful silver with a gold bell. Again in perfect condition. I read once, it was the best trumpet made at that time. Am I right? Do you know anything about the King trumpets made in the late 1920s-early 30s?

[@austincustom]

[@johnwilder8517]

Hey wait a minute. Did you circular breathe on that 1st mouthpiece?

[@tempesthoughton4441]

Oh, I want one of those horns. Badly.

[@austincustom]

There's a link in the description for purchase! They are amazing! :)

[@garryhopkins]

I love the sound of the Coppernicus, but I noted that you used a different mic for this recording. Is the sound “raw” or did you dial in an effect like a concert hall mode or more reverb?

[@austincustom]

We did sweeten this one up with some 'verb. :)

[@nathanielwilliford2589]

Hey Trent how would I order the TA FX super deep hybrid?

Can someone help me with the name of the tune at 4:05? Great playing as always, Trent 👍

It's called Line for Lyons, Chet has a good version of it

[@jonahchalnick6416]

Hello I was just wondering what kind of microphone you were using. Thanks!

[@bkf8166]

GREAT sound on all of the MPs. Could you provide some details about the mic? Thanks!

[@austincustom]

Zoom H6 attached mics. Thanks for your interest!

[@bkf8166]

@@austincustom Thanks! I had considered the Zoom mics for my general video work. It's a lot less work than a separate digital recorder.

[@firebass6]

Hi Trent I have been enjoying your videos. I am currently playing schilke B 5 L that I got way back in 1974. I was wondering if you could recommend a couple of mouth pieces that may decrease the resistance of that particular trumpet. a more open feel . My primary mouthpiece has been a bach 7 E for quite a long time. I also have a schilke 14 a 4 A and a bach 1 1/2 c and a bach 11Dw with a rim I kinda like. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts thank you for the videos

[@austincustom]

Yes, absolutely, please email [e-mail] and we can help!

[@erikandreasbonde551]

Hello Mister Austin. I like the sound of the TAZ. Can I buy that one at your shop? Erik

[@austincustom]

Of course. www.austincustombrass.biz/austin-custom-brass-standard-series-trumpet-mouthpieces/

[@afoot4silver800]

Is this thee famous sterling coppernicus?

[@austincustom]

This was the first one. Someone bought it in the shop and then I asked Miel to make one too beautiful to sell. The result is smaug 😎

[@dcentral]

Other models of this horn you showed are made with Amado water key and this one has the Saturn water key. Did you switch from Amado to Saturn now?

[@austincustom]

Both are an option on any custom order!

[@biggrex]

I guess the "Pops" isn't available at the present time? At least I could not find it on the website. Found all sorts of other models. Or am I just doing a miserable job of surfing your website?

[@austincustom]

We do not sell it commercially.

[@rik-keymusic160]

HeyTrent, wondering what your thought's are on the P.mauriat trumpets? specifically the PMT-700... Thanks!!

[@austincustom]

They are very good... not in the league of this horn for sure but fine for the money.

[@rik-keymusic160]

@@austincustom i have to admit that this one is really nice sounding!!

Trent is it possible you test the 1SB from Superchops?

[@austincustom]

[@ckeilah]

Where is your shop? Do y’all sell trombones?

[@johannesstoll5896]

what's the cup diameter on these?

[@austincustom]

There were a variety of diameters and cup depths.

[@BillSmith-rx9rm]

I'm not saying this to be snarky, I really want to know. That is, if you want to sound like a flugelhorn, why don't you just play a flugelhorn?

[@austincustom]

Couple reasons: the trumpet responds differently and has more tonal colors, the Coppernicus lets me go from flugel to trumpet in the same solo, and it's much easier to tour with 1 horn!
