3 Great Jazz Bones Now Extinct

[@robhar9496]

Three beautiful horns. I liked the horton sound the best, the warmest. I guess the rose bell contributes to that. Play that stardust, jazz man! You really should rename your channel to Dr. Ron's garage for two reasons, you perform delicate surgery on bones and give them new life and your knowledge of trombones period is at the phd level! Great video Dr. Ron!

Thanks for demonstrating these beautiful horns! Just personal preference but I like the way you sound on the Martin. Maybe it's just the direction you were blowing in, but I could hear the "pitter-patter" of your articulations on that horn, which seemed harder to hear on the P16 and Holton.

@@1320_ikimashowhy thank you! the Martin wasn't designed to warm up like other two. The Martin being yellow brass with all of its nickel parts will create a more pronounced treble clarity.

​@ronzgarage how does the TR602 compare to the TR100? Been trying to research the two. Thank you....

Hey thanks for the comparison. I like Holton and Martin Trombones, but I have never had the chance to play the TR100. It's a horn that I'd like to learn more about. I've had several Martin Trombones over the years, and I still have a Martin Imperial from around 34 or 35 that is in really good shape for the age. I also had a mint Martin Committee trombone that I miss vary much. I'd love to see a comparison between a small bore Committee and the TR4501. I could see some build similarities in the Urbie Green model that are typical Martin.

Hey Thanks! I'm planning to do a review of my Martin Collection in the near future. BTW Urbie played the Committee prior to working with Martin / LeBlanc to design the TR450 in the early 80's. FYI the early Committee's are along the lines of the King 2B with a bore around .484 where the TR4501 is .500. Stay tuned and subscribe to my KZbin channel if you haven't already.
