A heavyweight horn with expansive sound
The A4 is one of the heaviest trumpets in the Adams lineup, delivering a rich, warm sound that’s perfect for soloists seeking a heavyweight horn with undeniable fluidity. Its #3 yellow brass leadpipe offers a somewhat constricted feel, enabling tight-sounding leads with rock-solid intonation. The large bore produces an expansive, larger-than-life sound with excellent projection. Additionally, the heavy valve block, featuring a robust bronze casing and nickel-silver balusters, adds girth and suppleness to the horn's core while providing a balanced and ergonomic feel. The satin lacquer brass body not only produces a warm, ear-catching quality but also gives the trumpet a sleek, head-turning look.
Gold brass bell
Crafted from hand-hammered gold brass, the Adams A4 trumpet features a 1-piece bell with a distinctive flare shape and lighter gauge, ensuring excellent player feedback. In contrast to its aerodynamic playability, this horn’s large 5.51-inch-diameter bell provides heavyweight projection and dispersion. Additionally, the trumpet offers remarkably even playability, with top-center stainless steel valves matched to the highest possible standards.
Adams: generations of impeccable quality
Adams has crafted top-tier brass and percussion instruments since the brand’s inception in 1970.

Similar to the story of Sweetwater, Adams quickly found success and extended its reach across the globe. All Adams brasswind instruments are built with pride and an unrelenting dedication to reliability. These spectacular horns can be seen in the hands of world-class players, such as Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah and Dontae Winslow, and on the marching fields of countless college and high school bands.
