Bach BTB201 Student Series Trombone Lacquer Yellow Brass Bell

The Bach BTB201 Student Series trombone is designed for beginners while producing a rich, resonant tone worthy of any stage. Its medium bore offers balanced resistance for easy playability, perfect for developing technique. A seamless yellow brass bell radiates a warm, mellow timbre with clear projection. The reverse tuning slide creates an open feel, encouraging full, free-flowing breath support. Nickel silver outer and inner handslide tubes withstand frequent use while enabling silky smooth slide action. A clear lacquer finish protects the instrument's vibrancy and tone. The BTB201 trombone gives students a taste of professional-caliber performance in an affordable, high-quality instrument.

Medium Bore Simplifies Play for Students

The BTB201 trombone features a medium 0.525" bore, narrowed from the standard 0.547" size. This modest reduction decreases air resistance for less experienced players, allowing full control and flexibility. The medium bore also helps students achieve proper embouchure formation and slide technique essential for expressive, articulate playing.

Seamless Yellow Brass Bell Produces Clear, Balanced Tone

A seamless yellow brass bell gives the BTB201 trombone a characteristic warm, mellow sound with enough brilliance for projection. The single-piece bell's continuous grain structure enables rich overtones and complex timbre. Its flared shape augments lower register resonance and opens higher notes with ease. The yellow brass material provides tonal balance and clarity suited for any musical style.

Reverse Tuning Slide Creates Open, Free-Blowing Feel

Most student trombones employ a traditional tuning slide, but the BTB201 features a reverse slide. This positions the slide stockings behind the slide, opening the slide bore. The increased airflow gives players an unconstrained, liberating feel, encouraging full breath support and free vibration. The open slide bore also aids pitch stability and control, helping students play with confidence.

Durable Construction Withstands Demanding Use

Nickel silver outer and inner handslide tubes give the BTB201 trombone a durable yet responsive slide assembly. Nickel silver's rigid, corrosion-resistant properties hold up well to frequent use, while still allowing smooth slide motion. The chrome-plated nickel silver inner slide tube provides a slick surface for seamless transitions between positions. A clear lacquer finish protects the brass body from damage and oxidation without dampening tone. This robust, high-quality construction ensures years of reliable performance for student musicians.
