Willson 2950 Euphonium

Item Details
The Willson 2950 is one of the most popular euphoniums worldwide. The larger bell diameter of this model reflects more of the high frequencies of the tone back into the horn, so it should tend towards a slightly darker and broader sound. In addition, the large shank receiver allows you to blow just a little more to fill the horn up, without undue resistance. Alternative sizes of large shank mouthpieces are easy to find. This is the large ensemble model: power, projection, stability.
These instruments can be difficult to obtain in a short time. It's usually 6 months for delivery. We do order a variety of Willson euphoniums for stock throughout the year.
