John Packer 'JP175ST' Flugelhorn | Satin | NEW

The John Packer JP175ST is a Bb flugelhorn designed for students and step-up players who want the warmer, rounder sound associated with flugelhorn. It features a yellow brass body, satin finish, rose brass leadpipe, 6" yellow brass bell, medium-small .430" bore, three piston valves, three lever-style water keys, and a JP 4BFL mouthpiece. The 6" bell helps project a mellow flugelhorn tone, while the rose brass leadpipe supports a warmer response and smoother sound.

This is a strong choice for trumpet players adding flugelhorn for jazz band, brass band, ensemble playing, or solo work. It gives developing players an accessible way to explore flugelhorn without jumping into a much more expensive professional model, while still offering useful features for tone, comfort, and playability. The JP175ST is especially helpful for students who need a reliable flugelhorn for school jazz band, pit work, or lyrical solo passages where trumpet is just a little too bright and bossy.

New John Packer instruments include a 2-year manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship from the original date of purchase. Warranty claims require proof of purchase and are subject to normal exclusions, including wear and tear, abuse, mishandling, cosmetic/finish issues, and unauthorized repair work.
