The YAMAHA Xeno Cornet is the result of close collaboration with renowned cornet players, including David King.
Made in Japan, it features a "Heavy Weight" tubing that provides a solid and stable feel. The Monel pistons ensure smooth and durable action. The bell, crafted from a hand-hammered copper sheet, offers a rich and warm tone. The new water key chimney, heavy caps, and buttons enhance the instrument's robustness. The lacquered finish gives it an elegant aesthetic.
This Xeno cornet stands out with its exceptional balance, offering comfortable and flexible playability. Its sound accuracy is perfect, thanks to meticulous tuning. However, in terms of sound projection, it may be considered less powerful compared to other models specifically designed for brass bands. Its sound amplitude is less than that of competitors such as the Besson Sovereign and Prestige, the Stomvi Titan Brass Band, or the Getzen Custom.
