Bb Euphonium with Silver-plated Brass Body, 11" Yellow Brass Bell, 4 Nickel-plated Valves, and Adjustable-length 4th Valve
Intermediate 4-valve Euphonium with Great Tone
The King 2280SP Legend Soloist includes everything you could want in an intermediate-level euphonium. This outstanding horn features a versatile dual-bore design with a .580-inch primary bore and .600-inch fourth valve bore, along with an 11-inch, seamless, upright yellow brass bell that imparts an irresistible, lively character to your playing, with a sweet upper register and resonant lower register. You'll appreciate the broad tone and easy-blowing feel supplied by the Legend Soloist's large mouthpiece shank, and the smooth, quick, responsive playability afforded by its top-action, nickel-plated valves are second to none. You'll benefit from extended range and easy intonation adjustments, courtesy of this euphonium's spring-loaded third slide and extra-long fourth pull slide. Beyond that, its silver-plated brass body infuses every note with a gorgeous, controlled brilliance. If you're hunting for a top-shelf non-compensating euphonium, the 2280SP Legend Soloist should be at the top of your list.
High-level features for advancing students
The 2280SP Legend Soloist is an intermediate-level euphonium for advanced students in search of a performance boost — it has the high-level features you need to further your progress. The Legend Soloist boasts a dual-bore design with a .580-inch, large primary bore. The .600-inch fourth valve bore really bolsters this horn's low range, lending a responsiveness and openness that you're sure to find inspiring. The Legend Soloist's 11-inch, seamless, yellow brass bell produces a lively sound with definite clarity, and its large mouthpiece shank supplies you with a broad tone and open blow. What's more, its rugged, top-action, nickel-plated valves offer smooth, quick, responsive playability. Brass enthusiasts here at Sweetwater concur that the Legend Soloist's sweet tone and uniformity of scale are at the top of its class.
Includes an adjustable-length fourth valve
The King 2280SP Legend Soloist is a non-compensating euphonium with an adjustable-length fourth valve that enables you to manually adjust your intonation on the fly, thereby extending the range of the instrument. While it's not as versatile as a euphonium with an automatic compensated tuning system, the Legend Soloist still offers off-the-charts playability. In fact, with practice and planning you can play the entire chromatic scale on the Legend Soloist — in tune — including the dreaded low B. And you can do it on a lightweight, four-valve instrument!
