Bob Venier's Temby Vintage BV Trumpet

Bob Venier now plays his own Temby Vintage Custom "BV" model trumpet with Marcinkiewicz 3/3c concert hall mouthpiece.

David Temby "When i was a young player, I was captivated by Bob Venier playing beautiful lyrical jazz lines. He has remained my absolute favourite flugelhorn player since. Bob has been perhaps Australia's most versatile professional trumpet player for decades now, and his playing is as precise and heartfelt as ever. To have Bob playing one of my horns is a dream come true. He play tested a number of Temby models including cryo treated silver custom models, but finally settled on a custom raw brass "Vintage" instrument which we then modified to become his own signature model. His sound is magical on this horn - thanks Bob!"

I have played virtually every kind of trumpet on this planet, from classical to jazz, both old and new, boutique and off-the-shelf. While I find there is a use for each of these horns, not until playing a Temby trumpet did I settle for one horn that really can do it all. I am a commercial player—a player that relies on one horn to play a variety of styles and genres. The Temby Professional trumpet in silverplate gives the player a step up on the competition in a variety of ways:

I have tried all three types of the Temby trumpet and as you would expect, the finishes have a bearing on the tonal quality but some things remain constant. These horns are well balanced and finished to a very high standard. They are very comfortable to play and the intonation was spot on in all the horns I tried. They lock up well between intervals and are very even over the whole range of the trumpet.
