In its pursuit of the finest sound possible, S.E. Shires relies on its team of highly skilled artisans to transform a sheet of brass into a singing trombone bell. The STBQ39YR comes equipped with a bell made of balanced-sounding yellow brass for robust projection and focused articulation. This 2-piece bell design features a proprietary S.E. Shires taper for a fat, girthy tone. The STBQ39YR’s bell has a soldered bead for extra projection and focused articulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfect for doublers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe STBQ39YR will feel immediately familiar to bass trombone players, as it’s fitted with a valve layout that closely parallels the standard bass trombone valve configuration.
