Based on Paxman's highly successful Series 3, the series 4 shares many of its characteristics. The bell is medium large, the optimum for this type of instrument, made in yellow brass for a characteristic warm, yet exciting sound.
The wrap is based on a Geyer style, which makes it a particularly free blowing horn. The left hand position is adjustable by means of a movable thumb lever, to make it suitable for the younger player or adult.
