John Packer becomes Schagerl specialist retailer.

Packer
 

John Packer Ltd is delighted to be among a very limited number of specialist retailers allowed to stock Schagerl trumpets.

Schagerl has been making top end professional instruments for the past 50 years.

Perfect synthesis

Their instruments are the perfect synthesis of traditional craftsmanship, innovative design and have all the attributes to serve the needs of musicians of all genres and levels.

World over

Schagerl instruments are played all over the world; in great Symphony Orchestras, Ensembles and by great soloists. Perhaps the most well-known player is the Australian virtuoso James Morrison.

Highly regarded

Brass Department Manager, Steve Herbert, told 4BR: "We're really lucky to be selected to stock these superb trumpets. It goes to show how highly regarded our brass department is."

John Packer Ltd is currently stocking five trumpets; TR-421L, TR-650L, TR-600S, TR-610L and the James Morrison Signature trumpet. Other Schagerl trumpets are also available.
