Model: 45
Series: Revelation
Key: Bb
A medium bore moderately priced trumpet of exceptional
performance. The outstanding feature of this model is the
slight "edge" to its tone quality which makes it the
preferred instrument with many trumpet players, especially
for radio and recording work.
Responds very easily and quickly and with fine flexibility.
Superior tuning even to an excellent middle D.
Top action valves. Bore 0.459, weight 39 ounces. |

Model:
47
Series: Symphony
Key: Bb
The Holton No. 47 trumpet sets entirely new and higher
standards of intonation even without the aid of its quick
acting tuning fist slide "trigger" and third slide tuning
adjustment.
Coupled with this tuning, model No. 47 delivers a live,
vibrant, satisfying tone that responds easily, quickly and
yet with a controlled resistance that makes even the longest
sessions noticeable easier. Valve action is lighting fast to
ingenious design and the use of special copper-nickel alloy
valves which require no plating and which have an oil
retaining finish.
Medium bore (0.459) , one piece bell |

Model: 48
Series: Revelation
Key: Bb
An all purpose trumpet, Model 48 is particularly recommended
for those who like plenty of power, unusual freedom of
response and a big, yet brilliant tone. Larger bore
mouthpiece and bell give a little more power and a fuller
tone than model 45. Yet it has a beautiful and exceptionally
easy high register. Top action shrouded springs and very
light and fast.
Bore 0.459, bell diameter 4
13/16 inches, weight approximately 39 ounces. |

"Llewellyn model"
Key: Bb
Edw. Llewellyn was the first trumpet of the Chicago Symphony
Orchestra in the 20's and 30's. He was one of the most well
known trumpet players of his time. (Renold Schilke studied
with Llewellyn starting in 1928.) He played Holton
Revelations exclusively and this is simply a version of such
with a large bore to suit his use.
The main tuning slide is reversed like the Martin Committee
Model, and I would compare the sound most closely to the
Committee. It would most likely have been used originally in
an orchestral situation, however this is an amazing jazz
horn today.
The price for a standard Holton Revelation in 1927 cost
$87.00. The cost for the Deluxe as auctioned here was
$210.00

Model:
49
Series: Stratodyne
Key: Bb
Model 49 Stratodyne Trumpet - The Stratodyne trumpet
responds almost as easily and lightly as breathing itself.
The high register is remarkably easy and playable. Tone is
brilliant, but not brittle -0 full, not heavy - truly an
all-purpose trumpet.
In short the Holton Stratodyne is built to satisfy the most
exciting and those who want the best money can buy. To own a
Stratodyne is to know the pleasure, confidence and pride of
ownership which go with possession of a truly fine musical
instrument.
Bore
0.459, weight without mouthpiece 38 ounces, bell diameter 4
13/16. Equipped with a "trigger" tuning adjustment on the
first slide. |
