Getzen USA Custom Bb and F Tenor Trombone

Description

"The Getzen 3047 is a production model of an Edwards custom trombone (the elite division of Getzen) with a symphony bore and may be one of the best production trombones on the market today.

Is it worth it?  You will have to answer that question for yourself.  But the Getzen 3047AFR is a spectacular trombone that could very well be the trombone you have the rest of your life and that would be a wonderful horn to play for a lifetime."

All Getzen Custom Series Trombones are based on the best designs from the Getzen ProShop. Custom Series Trombones are designed to offer players the ability to choose between different bells and leadpipes. This allows the player to customize their trombone to deliver the desired sound and response. Custom Series Trombones are ideal for college music majors and top professional trombonists.

Custom Series Tenor Trombones are available with either yellow or red brass bells. The professional weight hand slides are yellow brass with nickel silver end crooks and oversleeves. All Custom Series Tenor Trombones come with three interchangeable leadpipes to enable the player to further customize the response of the instrument to meet any need.

Axial flow valves have revolutionized the playing of the F attachment on the trombone. The operation of the valve keeps the air column entering the attachment relatively straight. This makes playing through the attachment much like playing through an open horn. Getzen high performance axial flow valves are smooth, quiet and easy to maintain.
