[@recruitdifficulty1638]

Mate, bass trombones are pitched in F. Contrabass trombones are pitched in Bb.

[@lindsaygibson2142]

@@recruitdifficulty1638 Nope, while there were older bass trombones pitched in various keys; G, F, EB etc. The modern bass trombone is pitched in Bb with either single or dual valves, most bass trombonists rather an instrument with independent dual valves with tuning of Bb/F/Gb/D, Bb being the natural fundamental of the horn, F being the thumb valve, Gb the valve operated by either 1st or 2nd finger, and D the combination of both valves. Traditionally contra-basses were pitched in Bb, but the modern F contra is greatly preferred. The Bb contra has the advantage of sharing slide positions with the tenor and modern bass trombone, but that is offset by the fact it requires more air, is heavier, and the slide offers much more resistance due to its increased weight and contact area due to the double slide.

The trombone is a cylindrical brass instrument and the tuba is conical. There is a pretty difference between the tone quality that they each produce. I play the trumpet so I'm pretty used to cylindrical instruments, but I still prefer the sound of conical instruments like the Euphonium or the Flugelhorn. To each their own I guess.

[@montagne8820]

I do not believe it is a Thein actually. Three reasons, One: Its hard to see but his seems to have a extended spit valve when a Thein contra has a unique button mechanism near the brace. Two: the tubing of the second trigger extends way too close to the bell on this model, a Thein has it much further back. Three: Not sure if Thein makes a fixed bell horn, but it seems that most have a detachable bell.

The ones in BBb do. This is an F contrabass, so it only needs a single slide and a slightly longer arm

[@lindsaygibson2142]

Traditionally they were, but a double slide is heavier and has more resistance due to double the contact area. The F contra also has the advantages of requiring less air and being (overally) lighter. While the slide positions are further apart on the F contra, it offers better slide action and a second valve, also the F contra is much more suited to playing above the bass clef staff.

[@jamesgesthuizen9916]

The reason why there are no women? because during auditions all of the men were better.

[@vasukushalnagar4087]

There have been studies on the audition process and it is kind of biased simply because of the fact that most judges naturally think men are better at brass instruments. When autionees have to play in front of the judges, the bias is significant towards males. But when the audition is behind a screen and the judge has no idea what the auditionee looks like, it is much closer to a 50/50. So honestly, there are a lot of women trombonists who are likely better than the men who win the audition. Not like I should be complaining as a college bass trombonist who needs to start winning auditions pretty soon.
