"...the trumpets aren't assembled correctly and are instead sold, for cheap as rejects, also known as cornets". As a trumpet player, that honest description made my day. Thank you.
Trumpets one of only three musical instruments that it's cool to play. In this video I will explain how there instruments are made. Trumpets have three valves to alter their pitch. On most trumpets the third valve is just decorative to add the aesthetics of the trumpet. Trumpets are made out of a special metal alloy called brass. Brass is a combination of tin, orange peels and paprika for extra spice. Brass is harvested off the vine and sheets. A skilled worker takes an old trumpet that has been steamrolled and uses it as a template to trace out the pattern from the sheet brass. Using motorized dentures, the skilled worker cuts out the pattern. This piece will become the trumpet's bell end. A piece of dead tree carcass is used to bend the brass in half. This wood only comes form disused Steinway pianos and helps the trumpet achieve its tonal superiority. Notches are cut in the edges of the brass to join the seams together. Some instruments still use the traditional method of Sellotape and moist syphilis nodules to achieve an airtight joint. A special worker named Chris Brown uses violence to beat the edges together and straighten out notches. He uses a mallet made from peeled cowl to reduce the marks left behind by this process. Guests from the local curry house is used to heat up the metal and dried toothpaste is used to seal the joint. This creates a watertight joint that is invisible in every way except for visually. Because Chris Brown wasn't very accurate in his beating the horn from a poached rhino is used as a from to give the bell its final shape. Because that didn't work either the rhino horn is spun at 2000 revolutions per minute and the penis of a fossilized bison is pressed against the bell to give it its final final shape. A wooden rod completes this process and gives the bell its characteristic oaky flavour. A prisoner's tongue is used to grip the edge of the bell and bend it over. This is a process called "Riming". A brass rod is inserted into the rim's cavity to provide a superior experience for the player. The riming continues with several extra production steps, some of which are done off camera to protect the modesty of the trumpet. The climax of the riming comes when the bell end is heated up and a gentle kiss of rosin is applied to prepare the bell end for its final assembly. Poking with a sharp stick completes the assembly process. A cloth is used to clean up any mess that has been created by the riming, in this case there was a lot of residue so it's back to the lathe to use a chisel to clean up the sticky mess. This gives the bell its final final final shape the bell is filled with spit collected from a band room floor. This gets frozen at minus 68.9 degrees Celsius. Once the spit has been frozen the ballot is placed in a special jig. Loud music is played to mask the sounds of screaming as the bass is bent. This is a process known as "Kinking". Special properties of the spit means that the is kept from buckling during this pressure, although all trumpets are taught a special safe word "woodwind" if the pressure gets too much. A gauge is used to check how kinky the trumpet is. If the kinkiness is to high then the trumpet is only to be played by adults. Elsewhere in the factory, skilled workers assemble the rest of the instrument using this video as a guide. If RUclips is broken then the trumpets aren't assembled correctly and are instead sold for cheap as rejects also known as corners. The instrument is lubricated liberally to ensure maximum slipperiness. The valves are tested for maximum boing. The final parts of the instrument are assembled including decorative items such as finger rings and water keys. Before being sold the instrument is polished, lacquered and play tested by a professional musician. The musician tests out how the instrument plays to decide which brand is engraved on the bell end. And that's how trumpets are made.
Thanks for the transcript. I could not figure out what word he was saying with "dentures", due to that New Zealand accent, it which it seems that every vowel is pronounced exactly like a different vowel is pronounced in my middle USA accent. We are truly divided by a common language.
Thank you good sir for warning me about the trumpet being too much where only adults can play it it really helps to also know that I can make a trumpet at home

Brother Trent, thou art too, too much. Without thee where wouldst we bee? Thou art essentially de trop. What wouldst wee do without thee? Maye GOD bless thee and thine familie!
I thought they were made by a mummy trumpet and a daddy trumpet put their valves together and the mummy one had to go to hospital to have the baby trumpet, (cornet) hatched from her loins?
Brother Trent, you are warped bent and twisted; I like that in a person! Excellently and professionally spoofed, but nevertheless extremely satisfying and informative video. Thank you. I never knew how oboes were fabricated until I saw this video. Now my music/musicology and quantum physics knowledge is almost complete. And should I die sooner than anticipated I will go to the grave knowing how the oboe is fabricated. However, there is something that you might further explain to me: How do you get that brassy finish to be stained, painted, or anodized black like the finished oboes. Keep the home fires burning, Mate!
"...the trumpets aren't assembled correctly and are instead sold, for cheap as rejects, also known as cornets".
As a trumpet player, that honest description made my day. Thank you.
The corporate music makes this so much better.
I'd love a whole little mini series of these kind of videos
Check out "How it's actually made"
You're in luck
Okay Trent has officially lost his mind and it’s great
Yes
Oh I’m surprised to see you here didle.

Trent failed the Monty Python cast audition. But only, and I stress only, because he wasn't born yet.
The chris brown joke got me good

it can't be beat!
yeah, what's Chris Brown's favourite colour? -viole(n)t
Bruh, when he said a special worker named Chris Brown uses violence to beat the edges together, i laughed hard.
My man Trent doesn’t disappoint lmao
Best episode of "How it's Made" ever.
It's not even April fools so please keep bringing out quality content such as this
The other 2 instruments that are cool to play are, of course, the trombone and the euphonium.
Of course
Obviously
Note to self: that list does *not* include hang drum, digirido(n't), nor djembe. So, stop. Just stop doing that.
Tuba: Am I a joke?
'Woodwind' is my new safe word
I'd never thought to insert a metal rod during rimming, genius life hack!
Yeah. There's absolutely nothing that could go wrong there.
“Ending the process, I slam my trumpet onto the floor, giving the bell it’s final final final finalized final shape”
Trent did a Huggbees bit i love these so much, his voice is great for the dry scientific commentary that actually makes no sense
I was wondering if anyone else thought of huggbees when they saw this
@@BGTech1 i did

"... to decide which brand will be put on" you're killin' me here!
For a minute I thought this was gonna be an actual mini-documentary on how trumpets are made in factories lmao
Um, it is.
It technically is lol
Secrets mankind was never meant to know. Loved it!
3 hours ago what the video was made 35 minutes ago
I really hope he makes more of these

Man, this guide is the best i have ever seen, Trent you are the funniest musician on earth😂 good job mate
Huggbees is gonna be PISSED
Band room floor spit... explains a lot!
Brilliantly funny, Trent! And all the while technically accurate.. offhandedly.
Have you been watching huggbees videos, trent? Excellent video.
Please, more of this series. Loved the clarinet video. LOL
"skilled workers assemble the rest of the trumpet, using this video as a guide" I lost it hahaha
When RUclips inserts an ad for a custom exhaust pipe bending company, things go awry.
As a trumpet player, I can't stop laughing 🤣. Absolutely love the video, well done!
I’m thought this was gonna be a genuine educational video and I wasn’t dissapointed
This is the best brass-related video on the interwebs, hands down. Kudos, sir.
Chris brown is actually really good at drums! He learned how to beat the pads from his wife!
I love it when we find out the truth.
I didn't know how much I needed this in my life!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Pissed myself at maximum boing 🤣 4:15
“The bell is filled with spit from the band room floor” Lmao
This is a masterpiece, much like the instrument that was being presented.
This was hilarious and yet very informative. 👍🏻😂
I just bought a vintage Marceau and ran across your video
Enjoyed it.
I'm watching this masterpiece like million times, and it's everytime made me histeric laugh...

Wtf, this man really just said branding is a method of measuring the quality of a trumpet, even if from the same factory.
"peeled cow"
that one and "minus 68.9 degrees Celsius" hit me in the gut
I've always wanted to know how trumpets were made
I just got a trumpet today and I'm learning stuff about the trumpet
Brother Trent, thou art too, too much. Without thee where wouldst we bee? Thou art essentially de trop. What wouldst wee do without thee? Maye GOD bless thee and thine familie!
Bro this brought me back to 2010
Wait what are the other two instruments??
I've toured that factory. Great staff. Treated me like royalty (even though I'm just a weekend warrior trumpet nerd). Great folks at Getzen.
Thank you Trent, very cool
this summarizes band kid humor pretty well
1:54 this killed me 😂
Very informative, thank you
I love this!
absolutely brilliant
Thanks for a great way to begin the day!
the other two being, oboe and french horn ???
This is gonna go viral
Chris Brown also handles the kinking. But what are the other two instruments it’s cool to play? I’m low brass, so nothing I’m involved in 😩.
Back in my day the kinking was done by Bill Cosby.

Bloody brilliant, cheers..
the 3 instruments are
trombone
trumpet
saxophone
Oh my god I love this
incredible
It's like a Trent's version of How it's Actually made. I oddly like it
I love this.Why don't you do a vid on a trumpet like my two "Leningrad" trumpets?
