Shires Quart Trombone TBQ30YA - Clear Pro Sound!
The S.E. Shires TBQ30YA is a versatile large-bore tenor trombone for players seeking dependable projection, clean definition and a colorful tonal palette. At its heart is the QTY bell: two-piece, hand-hammered with a "QI" taper in lightweight brass and a soldered bell rim. The result is a clear, "singing" tone with excellent presence—ideal for orchestra, wind ensemble, big band and ensemble work where precision and presence count.
QTY Bell: Focus, Clarity and Projection
With a bell Ø of 216 mm (8.5") the TBQ30YA provides the classic tenor trombone platform for controlled width and stable centering. The hand-hammered construction supports quick response and a carrying overtone spectrum, while the soldered rim preserves tonal contour—especially at high dynamic levels and in dense tutti passages.
QW47 Slide: Broad Sound, Yet Defined
The QW47 slide with a 13.9 mm (.547") bore combines a generous air column with clarity and color. The standard-weight brass slide delivers a broad, full fundamental that never gets "muddy." The wide nickel-silver crook adds a brilliant edge: articulations come through crisp, precise and radiant—especially in fast passages and with clean tonguing.
Axial-Flow F Attachment: Extremely Open Playing Feel
The Axial-Flow F attachment is engineered for maximum air throughput. You get an unusually open low register with stable intonation and a big, encompassing tone across all registers. In combination with the QY tuning slide the response stays direct and the tonal surface remains homogeneous—from soft legato to a focused attack.
Flexibility in Detail: 3 Interchangeable Leadpipes
Three interchangeable brass leadpipes give you added control over resistance, response and core. That lets the TBQ30YA be noticeably tailored to mouthpiece, embouchure and stylistic needs—whether you play with an orchestral focus or want more core and projection in ensemble settings.
In the end, what matters is that your sound projects reliably and stays well-defined!
Our specialists from the wind department are looking forward to your call.
