New trade in deal at Brass Toff

Brass Toff has just launched a fantastic new trade-in deal that could see you playing on a shiny new Elliott instrument.

Brass Toff
  Wouldn't you like to play on a fantastic FH-868RS flugel horn?

Brass Toff are offering a service were you can trade in your old instruments for a nice shiny new one!

Trade in your old instrument or instruments with Brass Toff and they will negotiate a deal with you for brand new Elliott one. The Elliott range of instruments is available exclusively to the well known brass repair and renovation business Brass Toff.

Made its mark

The range has already made its mark, despite only having been available in the UK for just over a year.

The superb tonality and intonation comes at affordable prices, and has led many top performers such as Simon Cowen, Principal Trombone of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, who plays the TB-928G trombone, and Nicóla Shaw of Wingates Band, who plays the FH-868RS flugel horn (above) and the CR-978SDT cornet, to chose them over rival makes.

No doubts

Simon told 4BR: "Having trialled many designs from various manufactures over the past twenty years, this is the first time I have been completely satisfied that there is an instrument on the market that ticks every box.

There are simply no doubts that the Elliott Trombone will be standing strong in the professional orchestral and brass band trombone world very soon."

Elliott draw

Meanwhile, Nicóla added: "Having recently moved from cornet to flugel, my sound was one of the main aspects that I wanted to concentrate on.

I knew that flugels are notoriously difficult for tuning, but having tested many brands I found the tuning and the wide, rich tone, was what drew me to the Elliott."

A Brass Toff spokesperson told 4BR: "The offer is available to private customers as well as bands. With some new Elliott models being recently released in the UK we are sure there is an Elliott instrument to suit all standards and requirements.
