Quality Brass G Bugle & Case The Arlington by Scoutbugle Boy Scout Regulation

Description

Our new Arlington bugle takes the great features of our Kevin Power designed Centennial bugle and adds some extra "pizazz." FUNCTIONALLY there is minimal difference between instruments, however a few features were added to make this extra special for a gift or those wanting a more interesting horn. We've added chrome plated tuning slide supports which adds a bit of weight and support along with great looks. We've added a Hex receiver, similar to the Bach Stradivarius trumpet. This appears to seat the mouthpiece better while, in the rare case a mouthpiece gets stuck, giving more of a "bite" to the mouthpiece puller. The case has been upgraded with a larger zipper, a smaller overall shape and thicker padding.
Features:
Plays in the key of G assisting the beginning player  hit the higher notes then a typical B-flat instrument.   While the traditional Boy Scout bugle is listed as a "G/F" bugle.  In reality the "F" is available by pulling the tuning slide WAY out.  This makes for a very squirrelly instrument with poor intonation.   We've included the extra long tuning slide, but since in reality the bugle plays best in "G" that's how we market it and recommend it be used.  There are many who feel the lower pitch of the "G" bugle sounds more appropriate for the playing of "TAPS" even asking trumpet players to drop their pitch by pressing down valves 1 and 2.
Has great playability for the beginning player, resonates easily.  Not to say it won't take practice to learn, it just takes a bit less work to play.
Trumpet mouthpiece receiver.  The traditional Boy Scout bugle often takes a cornet mouthpiece or a special mouthpiece, we made sure ours was designed to use the same mouthpiece the scout is most likely to use in their school instrument, which would be a trumpet.
Hex Mouthpiece receiver adds extra stabilization along with more area to "bite" in case the mouthpiece needs to be removed due to getting "stuck" (your local music store should help remove for free or a few dollars. Remember to always remove the mouthpiece after use and never hit the mouthpiece into the horn to seat).
