Jaeger Quarter Tone Trumpet
The 4 valve hybrid (3+1) Jaeger Quarter Tone Bb and C trumpets are built in our New York workshop on the same platform as the Jaeger Studio model. The incorporation of a rotary quarter tone valve and our unique ergonomic lever system operated by the left hand index finger, makes this a user-friendly portal into the world of micro-tonal music.
This instrument developed from a challenge I have described in My Friend the Trumpet. Once the initial instrument was made, we showed it around; on popular demand we added the Bb version to our range.
The quarter tone valve is available as an option on both our Bb and C trumpets. Also any regular Bb or C trumpet can be retrofitted with this valve.
