BuzzzMaster now has a new look - the satin exterior finish!
Available with Silver or Gold plating
Customers love how the new satin finish hides fingerprints and scratches better than the earlier polished version - and it works exactly the same way as it always has. These satin finish models are now being shipped as existing stock of the earlier version is depleted.
BuzzzMaster comes in several shank sizes for Trombone/Euphonium and Tuba:

Most Euphoniums, other than Wilson and older Boosey & Hawkes, have the Symphony Tenor/Bass shank (our "B" designation).
Wilson and older Boosey & Hawkes Euphoniums have the European (E) shank.
The BuzzzMaster allows you the freedom to warm up anywhere...without having to use your trumpet.
It is the perfect tool to help you target in and focus on your air stream, wind power and tongue placement, plus maintain proper embouchure formation to maximize your buzz for pinpoint accuracy.
The air outlet is precision machined to provide resistance similar to that of the instrument.
Designed by David O'Neill - Manufactured in the USA by Warburton. The BuzzzMaster is a must-have tool to keep the buzz in your chops fresh and ready at all times. Unlike using your mouthpiece alone, or with other similar products, the BuzzzMaster design provides resistance just the same as your trumpet does. BuzzzMaster and P.E.T.E. are the perfect companion tools to have on hand.
After having spent the past couple of weeks with David O’Neill’s BuzzzMaster, I can say without question that you have another WINNER in your line-up of Warburton accessories.
As a tuba player, I’m a big believer in mouthpiece buzzing for eartraining, wind, and obviously embouchure development. There are many fine products on the market to help with buzzing and they all work well. However, I think BuzzzMaster is the only one the gives me the actual feel of the tuba while still keeping me honest with note placement/accuracy.
I will recommend this to all of my students and certainly mention its benefits in clinics and masterclasses!

A constant challenge in my daily need to maintain chops is practice either side of daily performance! Having a young family and other distractions mean it isn't always easy to get time on the instrument when needing to maintain them!
Enter stage left, the BuzzzMaster, which is a fantastic piece of kit for preparing the lip for performance and warming down on the way home! The resistance that it offers is just like having the mouthpiece in the trumpet.
David O'Neill popped by my studio this afternoon with one of his BuzzzMasters to try. I really like this! It is a precision-made mouthpiece buzzing device that has a unique end which creates a resistance like actually playing the trumpet.
I can play softly or loudly with the same lip exertion and breath support that I use when playing the trumpet. My lips don't tire too quickly and I do not have to play with more effort than I do when playing the horn. It sounds softer than buzzing the mouthpiece by itself, too. I can see using it in hotel rooms or backstage without making too much noise.
If you are into mouthpiece buzzing, you should definitely check it out.
I have been using the BuzzzMaster regularly since I received it and feel it is a very valuable tool that would be useful for any brass player. I like the resistance that the BuzzzMaster provides when warming up or rewarming up after a long rest period on stage or off stage. I don't recommend buzzing an open mouthpiece due to the fact it opens the aperture up too much, but buzzing with the BuzzzMaster works great.
I am happy to endorse the BuzzzMaster.
