Jupiter JBR700 Student Bb Baritone Horn - Clear Lacquer | Piano Gallery, Idaho Falls
The Jupiter JBR700 Bb baritone horn delivers excellent tone quality and player-centered features designed specifically for student musicians and beginning band programs. Featuring a 0.511" bore leadpipe that encourages proper embouchure development and comfortable breath support, this instrument produces a rich, traditional sound that blends beautifully in concert band settings. Built with a precision-manufactured yellow brass body, 9.52-inch bell, and durable stainless steel pistons, the JBR700 combines accessible playability with the robust construction needed for years of educational use.
Product Overview
The JBR700 features a precision-manufactured yellow brass body with robust bracing that ensures structural integrity through years of student handling and daily use. The balanced-sounding yellow brass construction produces warm, resonant tones with clear projection across all dynamic ranges. The clear lacquer finish protects the brass from oxidation while imparting additional warmth to the instrument's tonal quality, creating a sound that perfectly complements the concert band low brass section.
The upright 9.52-inch yellow brass bell is carefully proportioned to work with the 0.511" bore, delivering clean, focused sound projection through all dynamic ranges from soft ballads to powerful fanfares. The fixed bell design provides structural stability and consistent resonance, ensuring reliable intonation and tone production. The yellow brass leadpipe is engineered to provide comfortable resistance that encourages proper breath support and embouchure development in beginning players.
The three top-action stainless steel piston valves offer a traditional playing feel familiar to students transitioning from other brass instruments. The stainless steel construction provides impressive durability and smooth, consistent action that maintains responsiveness through extensive daily practice. Nickel silver outer slides add corrosion resistance to high-wear areas, ensuring the instrument maintains smooth operation and professional performance standards throughout its educational lifespan.
