Jupiter JSP1000 Intermediate BBb Fiberglass Sousaphone – Clear Lacquer
Lightweight Sousaphone Capable of Great Tones
Looking to add another sousaphone to your school’s inventory? Consider the Jupiter JSP1000! This intermediate-level sousaphone has a lightweight fiberglass body and bell that are extremely easy to carry — even for younger students. For hassle-free maintenance, the JSP1000 has a removable yellow brass leadpipe and valve section. The valve section has a clear lacquer finish to protect it from the elements and provide a slightly warmer sound. Onboard, you’ll find three valves with stainless steel pistons for durability, and a smooth playing feel that lasts for many marching seasons. For unmatched durability, feather-like weight, and great tone, you can’t go wrong with the Jupiter JSP1000 Intermediate Sousaphone.
The Jupiter 1000 Series Sousaphone combines a lightweight fiberglass body with a lacquered brass bell for greater resonance and carrying power. It comes with an ABS case with wheels.
Lightweight fiberglass body and bell
Jupiter knows that protecting a school-issued sousaphone is of primary importance. To prevent catastrophic damage on the first day of marching band, the company outfitted the JSP1000 with a fiberglass body and bell. The fiberglass body simultaneously solves three issues facing a band program. First, it resists damage much better than its brass counterparts. Second, it’s incredibly lightweight — meaning that younger students can easily handle its weight. Finally, fiberglass sousaphones are extremely cost-effective!
Removable valve section makes maintenance easy
Say one of your students damages the leadpipe or a few spots within the valve section. It’s much easier for your brass tech to repair when they don’t have the entire sousaphone getting in the way. The Jupiter JSP1000 sousaphone has a removable valve section for easy maintenance and cleaning. A removable valve section comes in handy when you’re cleaning and sanitizing each instrument before and after marching season.
Jupiter: guaranteed through graduation
A staple in classrooms everywhere, Jupiter band instruments are beloved by music teachers for good reason. Since 1980, the company has built high-quality band instruments for students of every development level. Innovations such as the Waveline flute headjoint and the patented Ergonomic trombone are just two examples of the company’s player-centered design philosophy. Each Jupiter instrument is inspected for quality throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring that it can endure bumps and bruises as easily as it can navigate technical passages. Sweetwater believes that every student should have access to the rich musical culture that unites us all. And with Jupiter’s player-first focus, anyone is welcome to embark upon an exciting and fulfilling musical journey through high school graduation and beyond.
