I know Willson euphoniums are considered one of the best brands, but how are their trumpets? I don’t see them marketed here in the US. Are they popular in Sweden or Europe? Any personal opinions from those who have played or tried them out? Thanks.

| I own 2 Will soon flugels, which are exquisite. I never even thought about them making trumpets, lol |

I have an old Conn flugel that was made as a stencil horn in Switzerland by, I believe, Willson. Nice instrument.
I also haven't heard anything about their trumpets.

| Based on this thread it looks like Tony Scodwell has worked with Wilson in the past. |
