About Eltham

Eltham Woodwind and Brass has been supplying a full range of musical instruments since 1977.

One of our long standing products has been the Getzen range of musical instruments, we would like to draw your attention to a couple in particular.

We would also like to mention that we have available Getzen models of Cornet, Flugelhorn, Eterna, Capri and the custom series of trumpets and trombones — please call for pricing on these other fine instruments as well. Getzen Logo

Model 451 Tombone $850

This series of instruments are designed for the young musician who require a professional quality sound combined with the durability needed for the school setting. This instrument comes with a rose brass bell, the volume and warmth is enhanced by the use of rose brass. The player will enjoy the free blowing characteristic, and become used to the professional feel.

Getzen 451 Trombone

This instrument comes standard with a propack case.

Getzen 451
Bore Size 12.7mm
Hand Slides Nickel Silver inner/outer, barrel tapered
Tuning Slides Yellow brass with rounded crook.
Bell 120mm Yellow Brass

Model 490 Trumpet $800

Again as with most of the Eltham Woodwind and Brass instruments the basic level instrument falls into a category slightly higher than what is commonly known as the student level. This instrument has a third valve throw ring and is fitted with Amado water keys. The Amado water key is a stainless steel assembly fitted to the moisture exits of the instrument, which unlike degradable cork in most other instruments, is there for life.

Also, the tubing in the Getzen instrument is selected to provide a non seizing characteristic in the tuning slides of the instrument. The “stuck slide syndrome” as seen on many other instruments, is a rarity in the Getzen product.

Getzen 490 Trumpet

This instrument comes standard with a propack case. It is of course fitted with the unique Getzen valve construction.
