Features
A Used Schmid Gold Brass bell in GREAT shape. This bell is spectacular and makes a really great bell to round out a Geyer style player's tone!
From Schmid:
Wide (W):
A full, but not dull, carrying sound, sonorous. With a carefull hand position, (straight and not too far out), it is possible to compensate for the disadvantages in the high range.
Gold Brass (GM):
Gold Brass (GM): a bit smoother and darker, but clear, round and rich. Not as many tone colors are possible as with brass. Some embouchures sound a bit shallow with plain brass and need gold brass. Resistant to saliva. Some prefer gold brass simply because of the noble tone color.
Garland:
With a weight of only 60 grams, the tastefully decorated garland from Engelbert Schmid does not deaden the sound. The garland causes a bit more resistance, and a somewhat rounder sound that gets brassy later, but more suddenly. Without the garland the transition to a brassy sound is more even. About 20 % of hornplayers sound better with the light garland from Engelbert Schmid.
Hand-Hammered:
Our hand hammered bells are cut out of one piece of metal bent into shape and at Engelbert Schmid soldered on one seam without "Zwickel". They are then hammered into the symetrical shape. Only in the last operation are they put on the press bank and, by turning and pressing, fitted exactly to the bell form. Because of the necessary stretching of the material due to the flare of the bell it becomes thinner towards the edge of the bell. At the screw ring it stays thicker than a spun bell and therefore is more resistant to sweat.
