The Yamaha YFH8310Z Bobby Shew Custom Flugelhorn is an updated design based on the traditional smaller bore size that is preferred by Flugelhorn players around the world. The Yamaha YFH8310Z Flugelhorn combines the tonal richness and depth of character of older traditional Flugelhorns while also using high-tech engineering for easy playability and superb intonation. Inspired by Bobby Shew, the Z Flugelhorn features the perfect amount of air resistance so that you can colour your sound exactly how you want, while also slotting in nicely to the upper register.
