Yamaha trombone with dual bore
The Yamaha YSL-356GE + 1/4 is a trombone in which the lower slide is slightly larger than the upper slide. That dual bore of 12.7 to 13.34 mm gives a fuller sound than a regular 3B bore, making this tenor trombone appealing for players who are starting out and want a richer tone.
According to Yamaha, the build quality of these standard models comes close to pro trombones, while remaining easier for beginners to play. If you want personal advice or would like to compare brass and wind instruments, you can also visit Magna Music in Roosendaal.
