The newest member of the S.E. Shires Q Series is designed along with New York Philharmonic principal trombonist and S.E. Shires artist, Joseph Alessi. The Alessi Q Series Alto Trombone features a 2-piece medium-weight bell and a unique bell tuning design that promotes projection while still maintaining a broad, warm sound with alto character. This horn is particularly well suited for large ensemble settings, but still has the flexibility needed for solo work. We've also found that this horn has excellent intonation for tenor players, which is typically tricky when switching over to alto.
The Alessi Q Series Alto Trombone features the following specifications:
QAlessi Alto bell: 6.5-inch, two-piece, hand-hammered bell in medium-weight yellow brass with traditionally brazed seams, unsoldered bead, and bell tuning
QAlessi Alto handslide: .485-.495-inch dual bore, gold brass; yellow-brass crook
Bell engraving: S.E. Shires makers mark, Alessi model designation, and traditional floral pattern
Includes Q Series trombone case, mouthpiece, and care kit
