Thomann SL 5 Soprano Trombone 5-stars Reviews
Best Purchase Iâve Made
I absolutely love this goofy little horn. While I did indeed buy this for the fun, I have come to just absolutely love this instrument. It has been more than fun learning to play it. I even got to play it for a gig tonight and it was great! High-quality material, great slide oil and instructions, and quick shipping. Pure Joy.
As Professional as it Gets
Very good slide trumpet. Good sound, and easy switch for a trumpet player wishing to play trumpet using a slide instead of valves. High quality!
Great quality, low price
A great bargain instrument of quality construction. Perfect for venturing into the realm of soprano trombone/slide trumpets for the first time!
Excellent value for money
Plays well and in tune, fits my trumpet mouthpiece perfectly and no issues 8 years on. Only improvement could be on making the tubing longer on the tuning section, as there is a hole that prevents you making the instrument flatter, past a certain point.
fun instrument
I bought this for my husband who is learning trombone and really wanted it. Sadly, only his teacher can play it!!
Mini Trombone, Maximum Fun ð¤©
This thing is amazing! As an intermediate high school student, I’m fairly interested in music and all its little niches. And this particular instrument fills the role that nobody knew we needed filled. It responds well, higher harmonics are well tuned and sound great. Slide is smooth (especially with slide cream) and the lacquer is what you’d expect from a novelty instrument.
I bought this thing as a joke, but as it turns out, it’s a lot more fun to play than you’d think. Taking it into class, my fellow low brass players immediately fell in love with it.
My band director though…
Well, as it turns out, he wasn’t very fond of the “Baby Bone”. But after some time, I finally convinced him to let me play it in a solo during a concert.
10/10 instrument.
Great price, Great instrument
Very cheap price, almost $200 cheaper then anything I could find. I bought this mostly for my nephew who is 4 and he really loves the trombone but he couldn't hold my tenor trombone so I got this and he loves it, now he can play with me (not any songs yet but he can play a few good notes). He loves that he got a real instument that has capabilities, I don't know who likes playing it more, me or him. The product comes with gloves, a fine cloth, super slide lubricant and the instrument itself with a 7c trumpet mouthpiece, I only wish it came with a cleaning rod because a small bore cleaning rod doesn't work for some of it
Good Vibration
Perfect for the price...good maker!
SL5 Slide trumpet/soprano trombone.
As an experienced trumpet player and casual tenor trombonist, I bought this amazingly priced instrument for fun. I am surprised at the quality and performance of this instrument which cost only circa £100 delivered new.
The instrument is all brass with a fine gold laquer finish. When assembled, the slide on mine moved freely and smoothly. The accompanying mouthpiece is standard trumpet - unmarked but similar to a 5c. I have tried different trumpet mouthpieces satisfactorily. Sound from the instrument is fine but it requires technique to produce really good tone
The instrument is very light in weight and I get the feeling that it must be handled protectively to avoid damage from knocks or bumps.
Overall I am delighted with the looks, the sound and the functioning of this instrument. It is at the very low end of the price range but I rate it as excellent value for money and I expect to get loads of fun out of playing it.
