ANDREAS EASTMAN trumpets are made to bring a professional sound and feel to the all levels of trumpet playing. The Eastman process of trumpet making takes great care to blend both technology and the hands of skilled craftspeople. Eastman’s proprietary bell spinning process produces a graduated brass thickness that gives the player a professional sound. Hand-lapped valves further the professional features of ANDREAS EASTMAN trumpets. The artistic engraving on the ANDREAS EASTMAN trumpet utilizes the latest technology in a diamond tipped engraving process.

Eastman 520 series Bb trumpets
The 520 series is Eastman's advanced Bb line. These trumpets feature a hand-spun, hand-engraved bell.

Yellow brass---the standard alloy in trumpet bells---has the lowest copper content and is associated with bright, brilliant tone. Gold brass contains more copper and allows richer timbre, but does not support powerful playing and loud dynamics as well as yellow brass; gold brass is a good compromise between yellow brass and red brass, which has the highest copper content and is often used in flugelhorn bells.
