Transitioning from playing horn in a concert band to mellophone on the marching field can challenge a player’s embouchure. You can help smooth that learning curve with the King 1121SP. This professional marching mellophone has an angled leadpipe that enables familiar and comfortable mouthpiece positioning while encouraging proper bell elevation. The 10.5-inch yellow brass bell and 0.468-inch bore supply a tone that’s equally at home playing solos or blending in with the rest of the horn section. Meanwhile, players will love the smooth, consistent playability of the nickel-plated pistons. Band directors will also be happy to know that the first slide saddle and third slide finger ring are soldered on for extra durability. For the ultimate in marching mellophone tone, choose the King 1121SP.sh.
The 1121SP is ready to partake in your marching group for many seasons to come. It comes equipped with three nickel-plated pistons for corrosion and stain resistance. The expertly fit valves offer a tight seal and consistent travel throughout the mellophone’s life. You, or a player in your ensemble, will also enjoy the first slide saddle and a third slide finger ring for on-the-fly intonation adjustments.
