Command total visual and acoustic attention at state events, heraldic ceremonies, and pageantry performances with the Wessex R135 tenor trumpet.
Pitched in Bb to match a tenor trombone or baritone, this specialized instrument uses a small-shank trombone mouthpiece, allowing low brass players to cover euphonium, baritone, or trombone lines while delivering authentic trumpet clarity.
It is traditionally deployed in a six-piece trumpet fanfare team; pairing two tenor trumpets alongside four melody trumpets to create a dramatic, multi-voiced wall of sound.
The R135 features an elongated 43-inch bugle layout with built-in banner rings, making it easy to display state flags and heraldic drapes securely during parade displays.
Its smooth nickel piston valves and inner slides ensure sharp, immediate articulation and excellent intonation across open-air spaces.
Whether you are outfitting a military display unit, a ceremonial guard, or ordering a full set of fanfare trumpets for your ensemble (bulk set discounts available), the R135 delivers an impressive ceremonial presence backed by real low-brass projection.
