Benge trumpets and cornets are made to answer the call of today’s top professionals. Umi craftsmen are experienced in the technical and mechanical specifications, the special tapers, precise tolerances and special alloys that made the first benge trumpets such a hit.

In 1939, elden benge, who played with both the detroit and chicago symphony orchestras, began manufacturing custom trumpets.

Today, benge professional brass includes a full line of trumpets for both symphonic and commercial use, including the famous 3x and 90b series. Since the early 1980s, benge trombones have joined benge trumpets on stage, offering top performance in a unique design.

Benge history

Elden benge was only 7 years old when he first fell in love with the trumpet - a love that would turn into a life-long affair for the winterset, iowa native. It was also then that he adopted his first hero, the trumpeter of the hometown band. Young elden persuaded his family to buy a trumpet for him, and he practiced religiously. He began playing professionally when he was 14 and, years later, assumed the role of first trumpet with major symphony orchestras in detroit and chicago.

As a gifted musician, benge became increasingly dissatisfied with the range of tone available in ordinary mass-produced trumpets. He studied the technical and mechanical aspects of the trumpet in search of ways to improve its playing characteristics. Working with two craftsmen skilled in the construction of the trumpet, benge began to fashion trumpets in the basement of his home.

Through tireless experimentation, he finally developed his "dream trumpet" . . . An instrument with remarkable clarity, tonal range and easy response. Success was due to a combination of specially designed tapers, extremely precise machining tolerances, and special alloys. But the secret ingredient was meticulous attention to detail.

In 1939 benge sold his first custom-made trumpet to a fellow trumpeter in the chicago symphony. News of the marvelous benge trumpet spread among professional players and what had begun as an artistic endeavor was soon a thriving business.

Top trumpet players everywhere began to call on benge to solve their performing problems. By 1952, the demand for the trumpet was so great that benge retired from active performing so that he could devote all of his energies to his goal of producing the world's finest trumpets.

Benge's instruments defined a new level of performance and quickly became the benchmark by which all others were judged. Designed to satisfy a variety of musical performance styles, benge trumpets, cornets and trombones continue to meet the ever-changing needs of today's artists. Such a desirable reputation is possible today through strict adherence to the same attention to detail set forth by benge in his basement some 60 years ago. Benge upholds this tradition of fine craftsmanship and perfection to create instruments of timeless quality.
