Rene Hagmann invented an original 3-dimensional system which uses smoother angles. The playing feels nearly the same with or without the use of the F attachment. This rotary valve provides comfort and excellent playing over the instrument's entire register as well as providing great mechanical reliability which a lot of professional musicians seek.
Gold brass is popular among orchestral players, for its ability to achieve much darker sounds than yellow brass can. This is because gold brass contains a higher amount of copper than yellow. Whilst maintaining a high level of projection gold brass manages to provide a broader, fuller tone.
The trombone comes complete with a mouthpiece, a deluxe contoured case and maintenance kit so you have everything you need to start preparing. The hard case with solid contoured and durable outer casing, is perfect for taking your instrument between practice and performance, saving it from knocks during transport.
