Magnificent Trombone Sound! Perfect for Orchestral Playing or Solo Recitals.
The New York Vintage is an inspired design pulling from the classical New York and Mt. Vernon legacy! Imagine playing with a vibrancy and resonance that fills any hall with a gloriously rich and sonorous sound that rings out from the moment it leaves the bell. This trombone was made for Mahler 3!
The S.E. Shires Vintage New York trombone is an ideal instrument for any professional musician or advanced student. Inspired by the classic New York and Mt. Vernon bells, this one-piece bell is constructed with the broader TII taper and features a large, rich, warm sound. The yellow-brass bell provides a clear, pure sound with strong fundamental, keeps a very consistent tone color and overtone structure throughout the range of dynamics. The yellow brass, .547 bore, tenor handslide with bass crook provides a broad sound and open feel. The S.E. Shires axial-flow valve offers smooth, accurate operation, combined with a broad sound and truly open low register. This instrument combines the best elements of classic New York and Mt. Vernon trombone design with the consistency, playability, and projection that has made S.E. trombone design with the consistency, playability, and projection that has made S.E. Shires trombones the favorites of professionals the world over.
