Features: Top-action rotary hybrid with exchangeable leadpipes; MG copyrighted the name, valve-block setup and leadpipes, and says all three configurations work without compromise. It replaces the discontinued Twister and Twugelhorn. Typed flumpet as the schema's value for a trumpet/cornet/flugelhorn hybrid; MG calls it a Trumpet/Cornet/Trugelhorn. MG Trumpets is Mark Geelen's workshop in Wijk bij Duurstede, Netherlands, where everything is made in house and every part can be customised. MG deliberately publishes no detailed specification - "we are not specifying more about the setup of these instruments because there is a lot to customise on each individual model" - so sizes, materials and bracing are blank by the maker's choice. Prices are MG's own guideline figures, quoted EUR excluding 21% VAT and converted at EUR x 1.08.
