The Chicago Custom – Power, Efficiency, and Stage Presence
The Chicago Custom is the flagship of the Chicago range—a Chicago Standard at heart, but with extra plate bracing for unmatched rigidity. The more rigid a trumpet, the more efficiently it transfers your energy into sound. Simply put: more of what you play comes out the bell, with less wasted effort.
The result is greater volume and projection with less physical strain. Word of warning: this is a heavy horn, so for long gigs, the Chicago Standard may be a more comfortable choice. But if you’re after uncompromising power and presence, the Custom delivers like no other.
From the moment you take it out of its case, this horn demands attention. Crafted for superior tone and resonance, each trumpet features a hand-applied finish, creating slight variations that make every instrument truly one-of-a-kind.
Ideal for players who want maximum projection, efficiency, and a show-stopping stage presence.
