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!

About this item
【CHOSEN BY MOST BEGINNERS】EASTROCK tenor trombones were designed to make it easier for beginning students to sound good. Every single instrument is stringently test-played and inspected by an exper,yet are much easier for beginners to play. The standard models are durable, high quality trombones which offer a perfect entry into the world of music.
【BORE & BELL DIAMETER】As the bore size changes so does the bell design. The shape of the tapered surface, or rate of flare, determines the characteristic sound of the trombone. Slow tapers yield bright tones, while fast tapers produce dark, warm sounds. Smaller bore trombones having bells with slower rates of taper, produce a brighter JAZZ sound. Larger bore trombones, having bells with faster rates of taper, yield darker SYMPHONIC tone qualities.
【AMAZING MATERIAL & PROCESS】Using professional paint technology,the overall structure looks very beautiful and clear.Under normal use,the paint can last for a long time with careful maintenance.(Product Description for more details).
【Ligheweight HARD CASE】Accidental bumps are fatal to brass instruments, so a solid case is the key. Ligheweight and durable case for protecting and storage. Comfortable handle to take to anywhere you like.
Trombone is suitable for students,beginners, professional players,gifts
