ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI- As Back to School season approaches, SLM and Blessing are thrilled to announce a full stock of Blessing Standard trumpets and trombones ready to ship ahead of Fall . Blessing Standard was introduced earlier this year and had an excellent unveiling at Winter NAMM.
“The Blessing Standard Series is designed to perfectly accommodate traditional retailers who have any size rental pool,” Says Phil Baughman, Product Manager –E.K. Blessing at St. Louis Music. “We worked hard at the beginning of the year to make sure we were ready to ship for summer and fall. Another strength to Blessing Standard is that it is offered in-store only, as opposed to online, which is essential for competitive balance.”
Blessing Standard Series offers a full range of brass instruments: Trumpets come in silver-plate and lacquer finishes with a ML .460 bore size and feature Stainless Steel valves and matte finished top and bottom valve caps. A Trombone with a small .500 bore size features chrome plated yellow brass inner and outer slides and a brushed brass bell. Blessing also offers a Single and Double French Horn, both featuring a standard bore size, and the double featuring a Geyer wrap and an unbeatable student price. Blessing’s Baritone completes the series, featuring a small British-style .504 bore with stainless steel pistons.
Baughman continues, ““It was important to us to maintain the E.K. Blessing reputation for quality, and so far the feedback on the Standard Series has been outstanding. The Blessing Standard Series models are sturdy and durable yet responsive and resonant. Ideal for a beginning student, they were designed for a developing musician to get their best sound from the start which will inspire them to not only practice but play more often!”
