Thank you for explaining the need for a smaller bass for older rep. in a common sense way!

[@jamespileggi6650]

Thanks, Gerry. I met you at the Trombone Workshop at Fort Myers about 10 years ago and have a few of your CDs. You have such a clean, open sound! I have a King 5B that has that sound! But it is not a bass, a .547 bore.

I like your philosophy. Playing a D in 4th position is part of the game of being a trombonist. Moving the slide is the main reason that a trombone is different from all other instruments. Thank you for the video.

Thanks for your explanation about your single valve.. I'm getting back into it and am considering a bass. Having always played a straight one, a single valve looks appealing.

I definitely agree there are uses for a "small" bass trombone, not just in orchestras, but in concert band, pit orchestra, even trombone choirs. I really wish more brands made a 9" bell as an option!

Bravo Jerry!

I really enjoyed that. The tone, is unique to the rose brass or am I just thinking so? I ask, because I had the Holton Rose Brass and the sweet brightness of the tone I loved. I have been looking at the John Packer Rath, single valve horn. I play down in Ensenada Mexico after maybe thirty years ago. The local universtiy gave me a busted up old Tr181 to play, but before school reusmes , I want a new horn . The Conn is a bit cheaper, but I really dig its sound. Have you any thoughts on the matter.? I want a single valve due to the weight/playabilty quality and feel it is a minimal, back to basics way to return to music after all these years. Thyanks so much, I enjoyed your videos. You are quite a player.

Does it have a long enough F attachment to tune to E?

Isn’t that a tenor with f attachment
