How about a 5-horn demo?

How about a 5-horn demo?

Is it time to finally upgrade over your rental instrument or get your first professional trombone?

Eric Chapman from ACB talks about trombones for students. Buying a trombone can be exciting but also overwhelming knowing where to start and what is good for a student's needs and budget (or their parent's budget). At Austin Custom Brass we recognize the desire for sounding great but that sometimes that top-of-the-line trombone is not the right fit right now. Eric recently had a student go through something similar and talks to you about your options available through Austin Custom Brass.

Playing starts at 10:00 but check out Eric's thoughts about the horns!

Adams Sonic: I really admire the quality of this trombone and enjoy playing this horn! It produces a tone that is complex, has depth, and is adaptable to different music needs. This horn is not a “budget horn” but a very affordable professional horn that could last a lifetime as a usable horn. I would recommend this horn not only for students but for professionals as well (especially if you are the type who mostly plays in jazz and other small-horn settings but you need a large bore horn now and then and you want something great at a not-going-to-break-the-bank price). https://www.austincustombrass.biz/brand-new-adams...

Manchester Brass TB01: The TB01 is one of my favorite horns in this category of trombones. It is very comfortable to play, responsive, free blowing, and produces a very nice tone. This is not just the type of trombone that I think about as a “budget horn” but I just think about it as a quality trombone. The TB02 is a trombone I enjoyed almost as much as the TB01 and that difference comes down to personal preference of red brass over yellow brass. Manchester Brass trombones are quite impressive – at any price point, but especially for under $2000.

Brasspire Unicorn: For the price I do not think you can beat this horn. It plays very well and would be an excellent choice for any student – especially for the student who wants to enjoy music at a high level in junior high school and high school but may not go onto study music in college. https://www.austincustombrass.biz/brasspire-unico...

JP Rath 3320: This horn offers the unique feature of a Rath leadpipe producing excellent response and flexibility. I enjoy how this horn feels and it would be a wonderful choice for students in junior high school, high school, and even college. https://www.austincustombrass.biz/john-packer-jp3...

ACB 5.1 mouthpiece: Austin Custom Brass makes a line of trombone mouthpieces that are comfortable, flexible, and produce rich and centered tone. They are easy to play. A quality mouthpiece makes a difference at any level of musicianship and is worth the investment.
