EQUIPMENT

Andrew plays exclusively on B&S instruments

Versatility is the cornerstone  of my career. Having the right gear for the job makes life much easier and the job much more fun.

B&S trumpets offer me the flexibility I need.

My Challenger II Bb and C trumpets both with standard lead pipes are the workhorses I rely on in the orchestra. 

My beautiful new 3143/2 has the sizzle and edge I need for lead trumpet work in the Big Band.

A recent edition to my stable is my beloved 3137 Challenger I. This is superb for quintet, for recording or even close mic'd theatre work.

My two Eb trumpets compliment each other perfectly; one a medium bore Eb and the other a large bore 4 valved Eb trumpet with a super heavy bell whose sound could easily be mistaken for a Bb. This is a great instrument for quintet and 10 piece work - I love it!

My piccolo is a large bore, heavier weight than most with the most glorious sound; pure gold (not literally!).
