Leadpipes


TrueVee® G-F Solid Brass Leadpipe Displayed

TrueVee® trumpet leadpipes are hand-machined from one solid piece of American-made yellow brass.  They are not just soldered tubing with a trumpet receiver soldered in place.  The mouthpiece receiving end of the leadpipe is reamed to a precise Morse taper using custom helical fluted reamers especially designed for us.  The tuning slide end is micro-bored by hand with a boring tool created especially for this purpose.  It is then hand-lapped with Crocus cloth to ensure a perfect tuning slide fit.    The solid mass produces pure tone.   The only solder used in this product is to attach the pinky ring!

When we receive your order, you will receive a form to complete with information we need to machine your leadpipe.  We will need to know the make and model of your trumpet and the serial number so we can guarantee a perfect fit.   Note that we only supply the lead pipe.  You will have to have it installed at a brass instrument repair facility.
