A first glimpse reveals a traditional Geyer-style horn with a compact wrap, combining crisp, even response with a secure resistance. Nickel-silver leadpipe, slide tubes, and ferrules come standard. Long solder joints and an attached Bb return loop provide unmistakable life and resonance. The positioning and location of braces was thoughtfully determined over a period of several months. Elite players tested the Verus Model VII ‘Custom’ under a variety of conditions in order to refine the instrument’s overall performance and ensure optimal balance and ergonomic feel. Satin-finished engraved valve caps and brushed nickel levers complete the elegant Art Deco-inspired look.

Every Verus VII is sold with a Protec iPac Compact case. This durable luxury case is guaranteed to fit the body of the instrument precisely, while providing excellent protection. The nylon-covered case includes an ample music pouch, mouthpiece and accessory storage, backpack straps, a shoulder strap, and a soft foam interior.
