Yamaha YTR-8310ZIIS Custom Z Bb Trumpet - Silver Plated | Piano Gallery, Idaho Falls
The Yamaha YTR-8310ZIIS Custom Z is a professional Bb trumpet developed in direct collaboration with legendary jazz artist Bobby Shew, delivering unparalleled richness, depth, and brilliance suited for the demands of professional performance. Its refined second-generation design balances a focused, brilliant tone with a free-blowing feel that adapts effortlessly to the ever-changing needs of modern players. This custom-level trumpet is ideal for professional jazz and commercial musicians seeking a lightweight, high-performance horn.
Product Overview
The YTR-8310ZIIS is built with a silver-plated yellow brass body that lends a brilliant sheen to every note, paired with a 1-piece, 5-inch bell featuring a French bead rim for maximum resonance and projection. The bell's seamless construction contributes to a vibrant, open tone with cannon-like projection across all registers. The silver plating not only enhances aesthetics but also contributes to a bright, clear tonal character prized in jazz and commercial settings.
At the heart of this Yamaha professional trumpet's performance is a 0.445-inch step bore, which produces a focused, brilliant sound while maintaining excellent response. The revamped leadpipe ensures a comfortable, free-blowing feel that reduces player fatigue during extended performances. Together, these design elements make this horn one of the most responsive professional trumpets available at the Idaho Falls band instruments shop.
The extra-long third valve slide stopper screw is a standout design element that delivers outstanding tone stabilization and enhanced upper-register playability — a feature particularly valued by jazz soloists and lead players. The 2-piece valve casing adds weight and muscle to the horn's feel, giving players a sense of authority and control that matches the demands of professional performance.

- Advanced students and emerging professionals transitioning to a custom-level Bb trumpet
