Specifications

 
The Z was born of Yamaha’s long and close partnership with the legendary trumpeter Bobby Shew. Bobby is an incredibly versatile player, and to meet all his playing requirements he wanted to create one super efficient instrument which could scream out a powerful lead, or play soft, mellow ballades. He finally found that instrument in the Z.
When we decided to try to improve the Z, trumpet designer Shunichi Niwata and R&D specialist Bob Malone worked together with Bobby, passing into it all the special techniques we’d learned since designing the first Z. And the results speak for themselves:

“This new 8310Z is absolutely great! I never thought the 6310Z could be improved, but you really did it. The bigger and warmer sound is thrilling to hear as I play. It also plays so much easier that I find it hard to believe as well. You’re a genius.......Thanks a million, It’s like having a new career in front of me!”
