The S43HDL-F Faddis Model was designed for legendary jazz artist, musician, conductor, composer and educator Jon Faddis. It is built on our HD valve section, which is heavier in mass at the center of the trumpet. No nibs on the second slide, no water key on the main tuning slide, heavy valve caps, and adjustable soundpost.
The S43HDL-F is available by special order with an optional bell crown that provides more core to the sound with increased resonance.
