1937 King Liberty 2b Trombone Play Test

[@CamdenBrown]

Man, you sounded great on that first note at 1:04

[@gabrielbustos2706]

Camden Brown true, it’s such a mellow tone for a high d

[@jkara7843]

@@gabrielbustos2706 its a C# 5

[@gabrielbustos2706]

I had a King 2b liberty when i was a teenager learning the trombone! Never realised how privileged I was! But I did have a real professionaol jazz trombonist as a teacher and learned Sentimental Over You after about a year. Won a prize at school for that, too! MEMORIES.

[@SammyBoe]

Holly crap, that was an amazing solo on one of the best trombones ever made hand down. Sweet video, that trombone works great for you.

[@rayagnew8840]

Fabulous playing! Wow. :-)

[@1966gto1000]

Sounds great! I have 2 King 2b's. One is a 1947 Silvertone with engraving on the bell like they used to do at the factory years ago. The other is a 1951 yellow brass bell "garden variety" (or vanilla) horn. Nothing special about it other than it's an antique that came out right after WW II and, I've been told, is of better quality than the new ones today! I was lucky to have both of them out of my house when it burned down last month! Thank God b/c I just could not replace those horns. Keep on playing, man. You sound grrrreat!

[@buddythedog111]

Wow, incredible playing, dude.👍

[@michaeldixon2939]

This horn sound bigger than a 2B king! Great sound

[@distortedrealityproduction7197]

Great playing. Was looking to pick a used one of these up at a music store, and I'm sold!

[@michaelabbo2779]

I love the vibrato!

[@ronzgarage]

Pretty dang great for a friction fit pre WWII H.N. White Liberty. Worked for Dorsey....right?

[@cemgungortrombone]

Great sound ! I will be glad if you write down the number and letters of the mouthpiece parts.

[@ninakim7282]

Great!

[@bassboneful]

Yeah! You can play!

[@dex5975]

Grácias.

[@king2bman]

How do you compare this horn to a 2b? The blow and everything.

[@1barracuda21]

doesn't the narrow rim of the 7C feel uncomfortable, especially compared to the 11C?

[@1barracuda21]

7C is an enlarged 11C leaving u with a narrow rim. Bob McChesney plays a 7C cup with a 11C rim

[@atogofundake]

great!!

[@deepboone]

Lovely playing......what a great old horn and great playing. Out of curiosity, what mouthpiece are you using for that vintage gem. Roger

[@franciscomoreno5433]

Where did you get your rhythm section recording ?

[@damnablewilt2682]

+Francisco Moreno sounds like it could be iReal for iOS

[@franciscomoreno5433]

THANKS; been away a while;... making sure you know I appreciated the info. Great App!

[@yakelsevilla8879]

Song?

[@nolank.9186]

Days of wine and roses

[@matteo8985]

How do you get such a great tone? Is it the horn? Mouthpiece? Combination? Would you recommend this trombone? I'm looking for one right now

[@jasoncostello1535]

What gewpes said, good tone isnt something that happens overnight, you gotta work for it

[@posaunist5]

@gewpew Easy said, but i really know a lot of trombone players that did practice a lot and didn't end up that good. Amount of practice equals quality . that would be nice

[@1947rlc]

Nice sound, playing is sloppy tho!!
