Marvin plays Yamaha's newly designed "New York" trumpet. The model number of this instrument is YTR9335NY. This horn is one of the new Yamaha  Artist Model Series trumpets that has been designed and brought to fruition by Bob Malone, one of the most knowledgeable trumpet designers of our time. Released to the public in December 2005, Marvin's "New York" trumpet is a stock production model of this line of instruments.

Marvin's Flugelhorn

Marvin plays the French Besson flugelhorn, Model 30-FB, the Laureat. This instrument harks back to the style of flugelhorn made years ago, the highly popular and much sought-after older French Bessons. "My horn is a stock instrument with no modifications. For me, this instrument plays easily, is extremely well in tune and allows for wonderful smoothness of execution. The tone quality is dark and warm, very attractive, but you can still soar and 'burn' when you want!" 

Marvin's Mouthpiece

Marvin Stamm is playing trumpet and flugelhorn mouthpieces designed by Gary Radtke of GR Technologies. The flugelhorn mouthpiece is GR Mouthpiece's stock Model 62FL.  The custom trumpet mouthpiece designed by Mr. Radtke is very close to his stock Model 65M, although certain modifications were made to fit Marvin's specifications and tastes in musical performance.
