Brand New S.E. Shires TBQ30YA Q Series Professional Tenor Trombone - Yellow Brass / Axial Flow
We have a stunning, brand new S.E. Shires Q Series tenor trombone in the shop. If you are an advancing collegiate musician or a gigging professional looking for premium, custom-level performance without the $6,000+ custom price tag, the Q Series is the absolute benchmark.
The TBQ30YA model features a traditional yellow brass bell paired with an Axial-Flow F-attachment. This specific configuration is highly sought-after by players who want a classic, resonant, and clear core sound combined with an incredibly open and free-blowing valve register. It plays with the signature warmth and brilliant projection that has made S.E. Shires the go-to choice for top symphonic players around the world.
Key Features
-
Axial-Flow Valve: The "A" in the model name. This premium valve design maintains an incredibly straight air path through the F-attachment, resulting in a massively broad, open, and unrestrictive low register.
-
Q Series Yellow Brass Bell: Features an 8.5-inch, two-piece yellow brass bell. It provides a beautifully warm, clear, and projecting tone that can seamlessly cross over from heavy orchestral repertoire into wind ensembles and chamber groups.
-
Large Bore Handslide: Features a .547" large bore standard-weight yellow brass handslide with a nickel silver crook, providing crisp articulations and a brilliant, focused response.
-
Custom Flexibility: Includes three interchangeable brass leadpipes (1, 2, and 3), allowing you to perfectly dial in the resistance and response to match your specific mouthpiece and playing style.
