The idea originally came from a business partner MusilPunkt AG in Switzerland, with the aim to make a special looking bell trumpet. Carol Brass make this model based on CTR-5280L-YST, then changed the bell option to Euro shaped with gold brass, large throat, and light weight to make the sound wider with more flexibility.
"The Carol Brass EuroBell “Baro Model” is, if not the best, one of the most complete horns I’ve played , the original EuroBell model its a great horn at every level , from the design to the technical specs... with a few modifications, we took the original to another sound dimension and level , with the “Baro Model “ we have achieved a wider tonal range , perfect for players that navigate in a variety of musical environments from Pop to Jazz to Latin ... this horn has the capability of opening up with a bright tone in the higher register as well as to mellow down in the middle and opening to a wide bottom range... as a multi style player , the response of the instrument and the tone quality in every musical environment I play is the most important aspect I look for in a Horn... I believe the Carol Brass EuroBell “Baro Model” has everything a professional can ask for in a Trumpet , from style to sound to response , allowing the player to develop itself from within...!!"
