Our Ray Farr "Traditional" 7-inch Bell Flugel Horn has the Bell on the Right-hand traditional design side.
Like our Signature Flugel, our Traditional Flugel has the most amazing sound, projection and intonation, blending perfectly with the Cornet and Horn sections and soaring impressively in solos.
That Amazing Sound
To hear the fine intonation and beautiful sound generated by our unique 7” Bell, just listen to Atlantic Brass Band (US Champions) and their Flugel player, Jack Deal, in his rendition of Peter Graham’s “Meditation”, played on a Ray Farr 7” Bell Flugel on our Home page. It’s all about the sound.

Manufacturing

Trigger
An adjustable 3rd Valve Trigger is fitted as standard. We, humans, are all built differently of course so we've designed a malleable brass 3rd Valve Trigger that you can move to the most comfortable playing position for you.
Personalised Serial Number
The instrument’s Serial Number/Reference location is known only to us and the customer and is secretly engraved in a non-visible location so it can't be found and removed by a crook if stolen. When making your instrument, we can personalise and engrave a unique Serial Number/Reference of your choice up to 14 digits/letters, as long as it is not currently on another Ray Farr Flugel.
