The S.E. Shires Vintage Elkhart trombone is an ideal instrument for any professional musician or advanced student. The red brass bell with unsoldered bead is made in the fashion of classic Elkhart bells of the mid-20th century. It produces a rich, warm sound with complex overtones and a wide palette of colors at all dynamic levels. The standard-width slide provides a compact feel and immediate response. This is combined with the ease of playing and projection for which S.E. Shires instruments are famed.
