Yamaha YTR-8335LA

"Expressive sounds, deep warm tones, and accurate intonation"

Yamaha offers a complete range of trumpets for every level of player — from the beginner to the advanced and professional musician. Following Yamaha’s philosophy of vertical integration, top-level instruments such as the Xeno models are developed first. Elements from these flagship instruments are then incorporated into the professional, intermediate, and even student models. Thanks to this thoughtful development process, Yamaha designers ensure that each trumpet delivers the perfect combination of design, playability, and sound quality — tailored to the musician who plays it.

Wayne Bergeron is internationally renowned in the music scene for his ability to deliver brilliant performances across a wide range of genres. Mr. Bergeron joined the Yamaha development team in 2006 for the initial development of the YTR-8335LA(S) Custom model.

Wayne Bergeron is highly sought after in film music, big band, orchestra, and other areas, demanding extraordinary flexibility and versatility from his instruments. The valve casing is the vital 'heart' of any trumpet, and in the YTR8335LA(S), it is equipped for the first time in the Yamaha trumpet series with heavy phosphor bronze bottom caps. This results in brilliant high notes, precise pitch, and rich harmonics that elevate the performance of this custom trumpet to new heights.
