    Great student Trombone

    My son has been a musician of the Trombone since the 8th grade. Although this is not the same type of trombone that he uses in jazz and marching band it allows him to reach higher notes than the standard Trombone. He loves the instrument.

    If you are on a financial bind go for it

    This is an economic alternative to a higher quality instrument that is also several times more expensive than this one. I bought it for my younger daughter to play at junior high band. The instrument did the job, but when you compare it with the more expensive ones you or your kid will notice the difference. At least in my experience the instrument will required continuous lubrication with quality products. So if you and/or your kid are not sure if playing an instrument is something your are going to do for the long haul (say continue to play in high school) this instrument will help to test the waters. We ended up upgrading after a little more than a year, who knew my daughter actually turned out being a good musician. I hope this would help someone to make a decision in the future when looking for an economic instrument. As for the tuner it stopped working after several months of use (not very well made).

  • Looks great on the outside, but has a tragic flaw.

    I've owned five Chinese trombones and this is one of the best. Unfortunately, it has a flaw that you wouldn't notice. All modern trombones have something called a "leadpipe." It's a brass tube that the mouthpiece slips into, which consists of a mouthpiece receiver, a choke point or "venturi," and a gradually expanding taper--all hidden inside of the upper slide tube. Leadpipes give feedback and useful resistance, and only the best players can work without one. This trombone might as well not have a leadpipe. I pulled the one installed in it--a task which requires a torch, specialized tools, and a lot of expertise. Instead of the .350 venturi I'd expect to find on a student horn, it had a .425 bore which extended the entire length of the leadpipe down to the last 1/4" where it expanded rapidly to .460. Most pros playing .500 bore horns would consider .415 or so to be very large, and expect a gradual taper up to .460. The way this one is set up, it's only suitable for a player with very well developed chops and very odd tastes. it's a bazooka!! For a student, this horn is not going to play in tune, it's going to be weak on attacks, and the tone will be poor. I'm a tech, so I can replace leadpipes. If you were to have this done, parts and labor would be around $150. That's just not a good deal.

  • Great instrument for a nice price!

    I was skeptical because the price was so low, but this has turned out to be perfect for our 4th grader just starting out. Buying from Mendini was cheaper than renting one for the year through the school!

  • Love it.

    The trombone itself is great. My son loves how much easier it is to carry. His old trombone case was very heavy and awkward. But the case is tearing at the seams. It started on the first day but only by the large straps. The smaller straps are good. If I had to buy another one. I still would buy from here

  • You get what you pay for

    As far as appearance goes, this trombone is satisfactory. That's about it. It's difficult to play, the slide is very noisy and difficult to move (for a trombone slide), the inner slide is crooked. The instrument creates a buzzy, tinny sound along with a sound comparable to an air leak. I wouldn't recommend this instrument, especially for students or beginners, as they'll quickly become frustrated. Buy a quality used one or rent.

  • Good Value for a beginner

    I got this for my 9 year old instead of renting one. He loves it. It is perfect for a beginner. Great Quality for the price.

  • from a trumpet player

    I wanted to try the trombone so I bought an entry level trombone. I can make decent sound and would recommend this trombone for a new student.

  • valve trombone

    - am enjoying it - only issue ... perhaps a partial blockage between 1st and 2nd valves ... hopefully, an easy fix ...
