  The brilliant new mechanism has been designed with the player in mind

A brilliant new trigger mechanism that can be used on the vast majority of euphoniums has been designed and produced by Fohqudill Instruments.

It is also being premiered at the Butlins Mineworkers Championships in Skegness this weekend where you can see it in action on a special demonstration instrument.

The player in mind

The system has been designed with the player in mind, and engineered to the same level of quality that Fohqudill Instruments and FH Lamberts in Watford are renowned for worldwide.

The system will fit most makes and models, are all built in the UK, and can come in either silver plate or lacquer.

Professionally fitted

They will retail at £500 with an additional charge for it to be professionally fitted at the Fohqudill Instruments workshop. It can also be ordered directly from Dawkes Music in Maidenhead.
