Taipei, Taiwan – February 17th, 2025 – Trumpet is a difficult instrument. The demands placed on trumpet players often push the physical limits of player control and endurance. While practice helps to build the chops needed to overcome these challenges, many instruments that provide preferred tone and projection can be challenging to control. Over time, little has been done with the design and development of the instrument to mitigate these issues.

With this in mind, Jupiter approached the newest additions to their 1100 Performance series trumpet line-up with a fresh mindset. The Jupiter JTR1150 and JTR1160R state-of-the-art trumpets are designed to fuel confidence by allowing advanced musicians greater command of their instrument.

These new models feature a shorter mouthpiece receiver and a redesigned main tuning slide to enhance playability and agility, ensuring a comfortable and responsive playing experience. The unique Rose Brass Resonance Rings and one-piece braces work together to reduce the effort needed for high register playing, significantly minimizing fatigue during long practice sessions and demanding performances. Musicians will benefit from the smooth, effortless response, allowing them to maintain their focus on performance with reduced distraction of physical strain.

Additionally, these trumpets are equipped with yellow brass outer tuning slide tubes and an extra bell brace to optimize resonance, providing a rich, full-bodied sound that resonates with depth and clarity. The combination of these innovative features ensures that the JTR1150 and JTR1160R trumpets deliver expressive tone and strong presence, making them ideal for musicians who seek both power and precision in their performances. Whether performing a complex solo or leading an ensemble, these instruments are sure to elevate your performance, helping bring your optimal sound to life in any musical setting.

With the introduction of the JTR1150 and JTR1160R, KHS Musical Instruments Co., Ltd. continues its tradition of innovation and excellence, offering musicians around the world the tools they need to inspire and captivate their audiences.
