Brand New S.E. Shires Q Series TBQ30YR Professional Tenor Trombone - Yellow Brass Bell w/ Rotary F-Attachment
We have another stunning Shires professional instrument fresh out of the box today! If the TBQ36YA bass bone was built for low-end thunder, the S.E. Shires TBQ30YR is engineered for the ultimate versatility in an orchestral, chamber, or wind ensemble tenor section. Bringing Shires' custom-shop acoustic design to an accessible price point, the Q Series represents elite professional performance without compromise.
The "YR" designation tells you this horn features an 8.5-inch, two-piece hand-hammered yellow brass bell ("Y") built on Shires' renowned "QI" taper with a soldered rim bead, paired with a traditional rotary F-attachment ("R"). The yellow brass bell delivers a bright, clear, singing tone with brilliant projection, while the standard rotary valve keeps the low register tightly focused and centered under the fingers.
Outfitted with a standard-weight .547" large bore handslide (featuring a nickel-silver wide crook for crisp articulations) and three interchangeable yellow brass leadpipes, this horn lets the player completely customize their resistance and response. It arrives complete with the Q Series hardshell case, mouthpiece, and maintenance kit.
