These won't solve your issue but they may be fun to share:

...someone made their own 'huge trumpet' which would be a little easier on 'big hands'.

And then there's this bass trumpet by Bach.

Both are pretty big I reckon'.


That’s some “trumpet” lol.
Wonder what shipping would be from the Netherlands?

Or look at a horn with a wider wrap such as the Constellation models. I really like them but have no funds at the moment

This is where I would start. I had a Connstellation for years and as I remember it, there was more room for the left hand. Plus, it's third-valve slide ring is adjustable.

Looking for used, I would start with ACB or Osmun Music but Trumpet Herald has a list of on-line sources.

Thanks- that gives me some more options to look into.
