Many clients have asked Adams to take the classic design concept of the Martin trumpets of the mid-20th century and create a trumpet with better intonation, improved slotting, and more sound color options.
After extensive prototype work, Adams is proud to offer the A9 - a trumpet that builds on tradition, with the legendary quality and exceptional playability you expect from an Adams trumpet. It is offered in two bore options, a .453 (11.51) medium bore and a .468 (11.89) large bore.
