Product studyGiardinelli 500LQ Straight Trumpet Lyre

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Marching band trumpet players reading on the field
  • Pep band and parade playing where a stand is impractical
  • Replacing a bent or lost school-issued lyre

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Seated concert playing where a music stand works better
  • Instruments without a matching lyre receiver
  • Players needing a curved or bell-front lyre design

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Straight design

Music sits directly above the lyre box in line with the horn, rather than angled off to one side.

Detail 02

Trumpet-specific

The shank is sized for a trumpet lyre receiver. Other brass instruments use different receiver dimensions.

Detail 03

Metal construction

Holds folder weight without flexing, but can bend permanently if stepped on or forced into the receiver.

Detail 04

Lyre-only

It is the holder. The flip folder that clips into it is a separate item.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01No flip folder or music included — you need a separate folder
  2. 02Your trumpet must have a lyre receiver; not all horns do
  3. 03Check the receiver diameter first — lyre shanks are not universal across makers

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does this come with a flip folder?

No. This is the lyre only. The flip folder that holds your music clips into it and is sold separately.

02Will it fit any trumpet?

It fits trumpets with a standard lyre receiver. If your horn has no receiver, or an unusual one, measure before ordering.

03What is the difference between straight and curved lyres?

A straight lyre holds music in line above the receiver. Curved versions angle the music toward the player's eyeline, which some marchers prefer.

04Can I use this on a cornet?

Only if the cornet's lyre receiver matches the trumpet shank size. Check the receiver before buying.
