Ey I can play trombone. You might wanna try making it with smaller diameter pipe, and I would look up the length of pipe in a normal trombone. I'm normally a tuba player so I know that my tuba has like 18 feet of tubing. I bet if you made it more specific you could make it really good. My friend has a plastic trombone and he loves it.

As a brass player who has played pvc pipes before, I suspect the tone of the instrument would increase a lot if you put a proper mouthpiece in there. Mouthpieces make a huge difference in sound, and jagged piping does not a good mouthpiece make.

The reason instruments use brass is because it has this cool property that allows two pieces of tubing to slide inside one another without loosing air pressure or pulling more air in. This is also why its useful in modifying nerf guns

Everyone saying “he plays the pvc pipes lol” but if you really think about it it’s a trombone either way because it is just a material to make the trombone it’s like saying “i play a Metal” or “i play strings” or “i play brass” it still a trombone just made a of a different material other than brass which most trombones are made with.

[@thelistener1268]

If you did the math for the tubing and added a tuning slide you definitely could make it work better. You could essentially make a p-bone sort of deal and use metal stockings to bore out the slide to a more or less sufficient fit. (After milling it to a near fit). If you're feeling really adventurous you could take a shot a bending some brass. It would be an awesome challenge to see you take. Fittings with curved corners would allow for a better playing experience making it less nasally. The most important part in any horn instrument is the horn part! The bell you made approximated what one looks like. The closer you can make it shaped like the real deal the more like the real deal it will sound. Please make a V2!
