Promoting a premium performance experience through the design, development, and creation of brass instruments and accessories at the pinnacle of quality and value.

Founded in 2018 by the owners of Houghton Horns, Verus is a company that seeks to advance the accessibility of high-quality brass instruments for professional and student musicians. Verus designs are the result of the combined experience of the Houghton Horns team: brass instrument craftsmen, prominent musicians, and seasoned educators. Each of these elements play a role in the design, development, and evolution of our products. Verus is uniquely positioned to nimbly adapt to the latest technological developments. We incorporate feedback and input from real-world sources in a manner not possible for large instrument manufacturing corporations.
