The Yamaha YTR-8335IIRS Xeno fuses high-level craftsmanship with outstanding instrument design and advanced technology to bring you a professional-level trumpet with maximum power and projection. The YTR-8335IIRS's corrosion-resistant monel alloy valves are housed in an extra-thin valve casing, and its modified branch tube (knuckle) angle facilitates a snappy response and unrestricted playability. This trumpet's 0.459-inch bore elicits a massive sound that doesn't break up when you push it; its reversed leadpipe offers smooth resistance and airflow, along with a rich, harmonic-laden tone. You also get a 1-piece, 4-7/8-inch, yellow brass bell with an annealed design for powerful tone and amazing upper-register playability. On-the-fly tuning adjustments are easy, thanks to this horn's first valve slide saddle. What's more, its silver-plated brass body lends a brilliant sheen to every note you play. If you're searching for a heavyweight, high-performance horn for symphonic, jazz ensemble, or commercial applications, fortify your brass arsenal with the Yamaha YTR-8345IIRS Xeno.

Serious symphonic and jazz trumpet players searching for an extra-loud horn with a warm, yet eminently brilliant sound will find much to appreciate in the YTR-8335IIRS Xeno. This heavyweight trumpet's reversed leadpipe offers a smooth, free-blowing feel and a harmonically rich tone, and its .459-inch bore permits you to create a larger-than-life sound that doesn't smear or break up when you push it hard. The YTR-8335IIRS's rugged monel alloy valves yield smooth, quick action and excellent resistance to impact damage, moisture, and air leaks, while its extra-thin valve casing and modified branch tube (knuckle) angle ensure a snappy response and unhampered playability. You'll also appreciate this horn's first valve slide saddle, which facilitates spur-of-the-moment tuning adjustments. To top it off, the height of the YTR-8335IIRS's water key gutter is designed for optimum resistance, and the ends of the water key spring are curled for maximum response.





Hand-hammered, 1-piece annealed bell





Constructed from yellow brass, the Yamaha YTR-8335IIRS Xeno's 1-piece, 4-7/8-inch bell contributes greatly to its agile response and huge, warm sound. The YTR-8335IIRS's annealed bell design really optimizes the horn's resistance, facilitating a powerful tonal core, spot-on slotting, and enhanced upper-register playability. The YTR-8335IIRS features a silver-plated brass body, which produces an ear-grabbing brilliant quality. At Sweetwater, we've also found that this trumpet's silver-plated finish gives it a gleaming, polished look.
