Shires Q30GA Tenor TromboneA versatile large bore instrument, the Q30GA features the clarity of sound and projection for which S. E. Shires instruments are famed. The QTY bell features an 812 inch, two piece, hand hammered QI taper in gold brass with soldered bead, giving this trombone a clear, singing tone with excellent projection and clarity. The wide, . 547 bore handslide in standard weight yellow brass results in a broad sound that retains clarity, color and projection.
