Best Michael Rath R300 Bb-/F- Tenor Trombone Alternatives

Based on 1 reviews

This is the best trombone I've ever played. It plays as good as it looks which means its brilliant. It has a brilliant high register that can soar on top of a low brass section in an orchestra or fits brilliantly in a wind ensemble setting too. Also very good in a brass band. It also has a big low register and a beautiful singing all through the registers. The harmonic bridge is also a big feature of the trombone and a great way to personalise the trombone to you.

Considering the price, this incredible instrument has got me back into playing again after 30 years! It far exceeded my expectations and can give a very rounded and strong tone, when you get the hang of it ! …. I would highly recommend if you want to get your lip back in and way around playing again, or for a student.

It produces a full, vibrant sound, and supports a variety of different sounds and approaches. It is very supportive in the upper register, and avoids sounding tinny or hollow at pitches above C5.

I like the deisgn - the instrument feels balanced in the hand, which is contrary to one of the reviews I had read prior to purchasing. I love the...

This is my second JTB1150FROQ trombone. The first, unfortunately, was irreparably damaged. (not my fault, you honour !!). It is an ideal instrument for the amateur / semi-pro player. The slide action is as good as many more expensive trombones and the large-bore tone works well for classical, jazz and all forms of playing. Good value for money. Mark, Dublin, Ireland
