S.E. SHIRES VINTAGE LA SMALL BORE TROMBONE
The S.E. Shires Vintage L.A. Small Bore Trombone merges mid-20th-century Los Angeles design influence with modern S.E. Shires craftsmanship, delivering a warm, broad and immediately “played-in” response. A two-piece medium-weight yellow brass bell, custom yellow-brass hardware and a counterweighted tuning slide create a centered, resonant core with stability at every dynamic. Its lightweight .500 bore yellow- brass handslide with vintage-style bracing provides quick articulation and lively clarity. { seshires.com}
