WORLD CLASS GEAR
As a YAMAHA Artist, Michael plays YAMAHA Trumpets and Flugelhorns exclusively.
TRUMPETS
YTR8335LA
YTR6335RC
FLUGELHORN
YFH8310ZS
"The easy response of this trumpet makes playing ANY genre of music extremely fun for me. The valves are super smooth, and the ergonomics are great. This is a flawless model."
"I tried the first one that came to Canada. While the ergonomics are similar to the YTR8335LA, it is more free-blowing. It also has a brighter sound. I am fortunate to have the luxury of playing on this model if I want a different sound and feel, without sacrificing any aspects of my playing."
"Playing on flugelhorns always felt like blowing into a bottomless pit.
This model makes me feel as comfortable playing it as if it were a trumpet. I now find myself looking forward to bringing this horn to every gig."
MOUTHPIECE
"I've used a Wedge mouthpiece for over 10 years, and it has always been my top choice. I feel like a kid going into a candy shop whenever I visit Dr. Dave."
Michael is a Wedge Mouthpiece Endorsing Artist. He uses the "6A4A" model with "25RS" backbore.
He is currently in the process of fitting a custom model with Dr. Dave. Stay tuned!
