Description
Getting started in music can be tricky. The pBone plastic trombone has opened up the world of brass to a whole new group of players. Children, students and teachers love it for it’s durability and accessible design. It is lightweight and comfortable enough to be held by players of any age.
Children are engaged easily by the fun design of the pBone and will be surprised by the immediate progress they make in lessons. It is not just for children though… existing trombone players choose the pBone for versatility. Many leave their expensive, delicate instruments at home and take a tough, weather-resistant pBone when travelling or playing outside, in pubs or at functions.
The pBone can be used without worry anywhere. It’s perfect for wet, windy, or rough conditions where a conventional brass trombone may get damaged. Traditional trombones are notoriously delicate, especially around the slide. The designers of the pBone alleviated this issue by making the slide out of strong glass fibre which is much tougher than fragile brass tubing, however it still provides a smooth playing action.
The pBone offers excellent value for money compared to a traditional brass trombone. Give something new a try without worrying about making a huge investment. Included with the pBone is a comfortable carry bag which provides a ready-made way to transport the instrument to lessons and gigs. Also included is a small shank mouthpiece to ensure that you can get started straight away. If preferred you can also use any regular small shank metal mouthpiece. Many players choose to do this for a more familiar feel if the pBone is their second instrument. Plus, you can visit the pBone website for even more free resources including online lessons, backing tracks and training.
