C Trumpets
Versatile and focused

“Why am I not playing this as my primary C?”
Dr Dave Harrison-Wedge Mouthpieces

There are many massively differing designs of C trumpet on the market today and as a result, Will feels that the unique symphonic C trumpet sound produced by great American players in the late 20th century has become diluted. Over many years, he sought feedback from many of the world’s finest players before arriving at the current design which is loosely based on the Bach 25H model as used in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra 50 years ago. This was an unstable instrument, famous for its poor tuning, however it did produce a unique sound. The Spencer C trumpet has excellent tuning, produces a dense colourful sound and is equally at home in both solo and orchestral settings.

Eb Trumpet
Extremely versatile
with excellent tuning

The Spencer Eb has excellent tuning and is designed to feel and sound like a C trumpet making it equally at home within both solo and symphonic repertoire.

Specifications:
Bore: Medium bore – 0.450″.
Leadpipe: Heavy walled red brass No.5. Bach 25H style.
Bell: Tuning-bell available in gold and yellow brass.
Price £1,750.00

Spencer Piccolo Trumpet
Unique and versatile

Due its unique design, the Spencer piccolo trumpet offers excellent tuning and the choice of two supplied bells, allowing players to produce either a warm mellow, or sparkly bright sound. Since the Bb and A shanks are screwed to the bell, the change from Bb to A has little effect on performance as the complexed gap, venturi and leadpipe dimensions remain constant in both keys.

Specifications:
Bore: 0.450″
Leadpipe: Custom red brass.
Bells: Comes with sparkly/bright and warm/mellow bells.

Uses standard trumpet mouthpiece, though a large backbore (Warburton 11 shank) is recommended.
Price £1,750.00

Spencer Herald Trumpet in Bb
Stately and commanding

This instrument was originally designed for the Chinese Army Band in Beijing and is not as cumbersome as most other Herald trumpets.
With the help of some of the finest UK Army bandsmen, Will has created an instrument that produces an exciting herald trumpet tone, has excellent tuning and is comfortable to hold.
