EASTROCK Bb Tenor Slide Trombone Brass Musical Instrument with Hard Case,Mouthpiece,Gloves,Cleaning Cloth for Professional Player Beginners, Large Bell(9.25"/235 mm),Nickel Plated

I got the red one. I love the horn. I've owned many trombones, 45 at one point. My favorite is an Urbie Green Martin. I've owned 2B's and many other small bore tenors. This horn is not bad at all! The partials line up. The tuning is very good. The slide was smooth out of the box. The finish was flawless. The color is beautiful! Everything functions perfectly. Maybe I got lucky. I don't know if they are all this good. I may order a blue one. The price is insanely low! I think it is way better than a plastic horn, of which I have many. It weighs about what a Yamaha 354 or King 606 student horn weighs. With mouthpiece, those student horns weigh an average of 3.40 lbs. This one weighs 3.48 lbs, so very comparable. I don't know about how long it will last. But it's great for now. By the way, the bell is exactly 7.75" which is in my opinion, perfect for a small tenor. My big complaint is the glue that was used inside the case. It was the worst mess I've ever seen. It took me 3 hours to scrape out all the glue, and basically rebuild the inside of the case. It is cheap, with cloth-covered styrofoam but it fits the horn nicely and is not bad. Most decent cases cost as much as this horn and case together, so you can't get too upset about the case. The outside should have bumpers on the bell end to stand the case up. I may put my own on it. It looks fine now, and I'll see how it holds up. Come on Eastrock, use some better glue next time! Still a great deal though, and I may buy a blue horn next!

I love it and can't wait to gift to my 11 year old gor her 12th birthday

I am mostly pleased with this product, but the horn end appears to have a mild dent that makes it look out of round. This could have happened during shipping, but it is not THAT bad. The RED color is beautiful.As for the performance, it is an entry level trombone made for beginners. This was the cost effective way to find out if my child will stick with it or have it collect dust in the corner.

Got great reviews from my son and daughters teachers one is in high school the other is in elementary school teachers were amazed how great it sounded kids were surprised the trombone was silver new great quality,value for the money always buy instead of renting an instrument.It came with a case,quality material.Performance wise i would recommend to any parent to spend the money on this trombone.I am a father of four and i will always give my honest review to all parents out thereI don't review much but when i do its honest and true.

I ordered for my granddaughter she didn't even know it had been delivered I checked my phone and it told me it had been delivered she was so excited and I was too the trombone was beautiful everything about even though it was late love 😍 it and my granddaughter do too

Just received. Very impressed with the build. Nice tone - larger bell helps as known. Definitely heavier than the other $150-300 priced student-level trombones. Maybe not best choice for a small person - but you sure get some bang for the buck. Very nice true hard case. Only gripe is that there's room for compartments with a lid but there are none. No big deal, but eliminates toting an extra something. There is a depression next to the tuning slide end, so bit of slide lube and a very small sprayer could go there. Comes with the obligatory white gloves - and they are the best quality, best made and best looking white gloves ever. The mouthpiece looks like a 12C - nicely made - though nickel plated. There even was a two pack of alcohol swabs - ?? Like the kind at your doctor's office for when (you know...urine sample) aheemmmm. Maybe related to the COVIS19 issue(??) Thoughtful of them if so. Summary - if you're looking to step up and pay DOWN - GO FOR IT!!UPDATE - When the student started to use the trombone for the first time, she noticed the two braces on the tuning slide section were dented. She showed it to me asking..."is this the way it's supposed to be?" I was shocked. Apparently, somehow, this trombone was not checked before being shipped. Myself and others who saw the instrument didn't notice either. Not sure if it was the factory or, this trombone was used. Amazon accepted a return and a replacement is due. We'll see how it goes.

OK: looks cool, especially with a gold mouthpiece. Sounds pretty good for the money. But man oh man, the slide is really pretty stiff. I've swabbed it out 3 times so far and lubed it back up, but it still accumulates black junk right at the stocking. I'm contemplating sending it back, but I'm willing to try a few more times. But an ordinary kid would probably be discouraged and want to quit right away.UPDATE: I upgraded to 3 stars after working with the slide. After using a slide brush 3 times, I started using slide cream, then working with it (i.e., play some VanderCook or other exercise), then completely wiping the slide down to remove "black gunk" from the stocking. After doing that several more times, I stopped using the cream (after diminishing returns on the buildup), and I switched to silicone droplets and water spray. Now the slide is working pretty well, although maybe just a little noisy. I expect that with just a little more work, it will be close to perfect.But I can't go above 3 because it took so much work. I can't recommend it for a beginner, unless you're willing to get the slide worked on before the beginner tries it.OBTW, I forgot to mention that the case is really nice. And it comes with a swab for cleaning the inside of the slide.

We decided to replace our teen son’s old hand me down trombone with this one. It is not meant to be used professionally, and for us that is a plus because we have an angst-y teenager who is not careful with his instrument, so I am not ready to invest thousands on an instrument. If he decides in high school that he wants to pursue music, then I will buy him a Bach or Jupiter or Yamaha. For now this is a good looking instrument that has a nice slide and sound for a great price. The hard shell case is very nice with both soft and rigid foam on the inside covered with fake fur. Came with white cotton gloves and a small container of slide lube.
