Yamaha YTR-8310ZIIS Custom Z Bobby Shew II Bb Trumpet Overview
The Yamaha YTR-8310ZIIS Custom Z Bobby Shew II Bb Trumpet is a professional Bb trumpet developed through Yamaha’s long collaboration with Bobby Shew to deliver a versatile balance of brilliance, projection, control, and efficient response.

Built with a one-piece yellow brass bell, a light overall weight, and Yamaha’s step-bore design, this silver-plated model is designed for players who need immediate articulation, clear projection, and dependable consistency across a wide range of musical settings.
