The Q36YA: Custom Performance, Open Feel
S.E. Shires is a premier American maker known for modular design and uncompromising quality. The Q Series was created to bring that famous "Shires sound" to a wider market. The key to the Q36YA's performance is its combination of large bore power and minimal valve resistance.
What makes the TBQ36YA a professional standout:
-
Axial Flow Valve System: This modern, independent F/G♭ valve design is engineered for the least amount of air disruption, providing a truly open, broad, and free-blowing feel, especially when both valves are engaged.
-
Hand-Hammered Bell: The 9 1/2-inch, two-piece yellow brass bell is hand-hammered to an exclusive "QII" taper, giving the horn a clear, singing tone with excellent projection and a full, deep low register.
-
Customization Included: The horn comes standard with three interchangeable yellow brass leadpipes, allowing the player to customize the instrument's response and articulation to suit their personal playing style.
