  • TY Tuning Slide: Crafted from yellow brass with drawn tubing, the TY tuning slide contributes to the instrument's easy playability and consistent pitch across all ranges.

  • TW47 Handslide: A .547-inch bore, standard weight yellow brass slide with a nickel-silver wide crook offers exceptional fluidity and control, enabling precise articulations and a broad dynamic range.

  • Customizable Performance: With three interchangeable yellow-brass leadpipes, players can tailor the trombone's response to their individual style, ensuring a personal connection with the instrument that enhances expression and performance.

  • Artistic Details: Adorned with the S.E. Shires maker's mark and a traditional floral pattern, the Custom Trombone not only plays beautifully but also stands as a work of art in its own right.
