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!
Comes with Marcus Bonna Double Bell Case
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.
Sterling Silver (SS):
contains 92.5 % pure silver, the rest is copper. Engelbert Schmid is the only one, up to now, who has been able to produce thin walled sterling silver horn bells with a width of 310 mm. The sound is especially round so that the middle size is sufficient for most horn players. Sounds noble and doesn´t get too aggressive or edgy in fortissimo. It speaks very easily in piano with a rounded sound, (ideal for lyrical passages). In fortissimo the sound stays round but is more tiring to play than the other alloys. Is resistant to saliva and the only alloy resistant to sweat. Beautiful to look at, especially with a gold brass garland. We also offer instruments with all the conical parts made of sterling silver, (mouthpipe, bell branch and bell). The cylindrical parts are made of gold brass.
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.
