Shires TBQ36YR Bass Trombone Pre-owned. This is an excellent playing bass that was owned by a pro orchestra player and long time customer. Has never been damaged or repaired. Several years ago we added a Shires custom thumb rest bar for him. The valves are super quick and nice. Handslide is excellent. Has 9.5" Yellow Brass Bell and standard .562 straight bore slide. Includes one #2 leadpipe. The case is an older Shires Marco Magi, from Italy. The horn has not been damaged and plays 100% proper. There are a few spots of lacquer loss, tuning slide, and outer handslide. The outer slide has small patches of lacquer loss on the brass tubing- possibly a lacquer defect, or possibly cleaned in water that was too hot. It's not big deal and is easy to overlook because it is such a great playing horn. There is a 2025 price increase across the board on all Shires products. This model will be increasing to $4875, although some online retailers are still showing $4525. This bass trombone will not disappoint. Mouthpiece not included. Save Now!
