The LRS180ML72 has a reversed lead pipe and 72 bell. This means the lead pipe goes into the tuning slide rather than the tuning slide into the lead pipe as is found on a standard lead pipe. This makes for a smoother transition for the air and reduced turbulence and resistance in the tube. Generally it is more free blowing. The light weight body also makes the trumpet more resonant at lower dynamics. The 72 bell is larger than the more popular 37 and 43 bell versions. It makes a big warm sound and is well suited to Orchestral section work. Producing a big supportive sound.
