V. F. ČERVENÝ VFC‑EP8566RS – Bb euphonium Emperor-master-line

Product detailed description

V. F. ČERVENÝ VFC-EP8566RS is a top-class professional Bb euphonium featuring a compensating four-valve system (3 pistons + 1 side valve) that ensures perfect intonation, especially in the lower register – including tones from B¹ down to F¹.
The body is made of high-quality brass, with a red-brass bell measuring approximately 305 mm (12″) in diameter, producing a warm, rich, and resonant tone.
Its dual bore of 14.7–16.5 mm (.580″–.650″) allows for a quick response even in fully engaged passages. The euphonium is silver-plated on the outside with a gold-finished interior for a refined visual contrast, and features three water keys, a main tuning slide trigger, and stainless-steel valves for durability and smooth performance.
