IMPORTANT RULES of THUMB (Individual results may vary.)* If you choose for a gold(plated) LefreQue it is recommended to match the gold(plating) of your lefreQue with the gold
(plating) of your instrument, yellow or rose. This could be the gold(plating) of the headjoint/mouthpiece/ligature, body orother features like the riser, crown, tab rings or keywork.
** Tuning wise the rose brass instruments tend to match better with rose gold(plating),yellow brass and gold lacquered instruments ususally are a better match with yellow gold(plating)*** 76 or 106 are optional on these instruments to skip the receiver and land directly on the leadpipe for even more effect.

GOLD Solid gold is our superlative and always makes the sound more brilliant.
This is our premium line.

Play octaves. Play it with, without and then with lefreQue again. Listen to your tone as if
you play a duet with your own overtones. Pay attention to the difference in tuning withand without lefreQue.
Play different fragments outside your comfort zone with difficult slurrings or intervals.
Feel the differences in ease of playing and pay attention to your intonation.
