Superior Tone with Excellent Response and Projection
The S.E. Shires Custom tenor trombone is a versatile instrument with a clear, pure sound and the consistency, playability, and projection that has made S.E. Shires trombones the favorites of professionals the world over. The unique S.E. Shires 7LYW bell combines the quick response and color of a lightweight bell with the centered feel and expansive tone of a two-piece bell. The TI taper in yellow brass produces a dense, rich sound that projects throughout the range of dynamics. The axial-flow valves feel very broad and even, and allow for a truly open low register. A paired TW47 hand slide provides a balanced feel and tonal color of yellow brass, with the response and slotting of the nickel brass crook. Three interchangeable leadpipes allow the player to fine-tune to their desired resistance, response, and tone. With new orders estimated at 12-14 months, this is your chance to playtest and purchase one of these popular Custom Shires tenor trombones!
