Edwards T-350-CR-E

The Edwards brand is synonymous in the brass music world with instruments of superior sound and workmanship. Unlike other established companies, Edwards does not build on a long history and tradition of making brass instruments, but on an individual approach, where it is able to build an instrument from components directly selected by customers. This shows that it does not offer models for music school students and beginning trombonists. Quite the contrary; their instruments aim to meet the needs of professional trombonists in the ranks of symphony ensembles, jazz groups and soloists.

The T350-CR-E Orchestral Tenor Trombone is another model in the popular T-350 line of professional tenor trombones. It is distinguished by the use of an improved quart rotary valve and a harmonic ring(nut) whose concept and function are similar to a harmonic bridge. Depending on the length and material of the inserted screw, the trombone's playing characteristics and sound coloration change. Thus, the sound and response of the instrument can be adjusted for a specific musical genre or acoustic environment.

As mentioned above; for most components there are a variety of materials, finishes, sizes and thicknesses to choose from. We will be happy to assemble a trombone for you at our company based on the individual components in your order. If you are interested in this service, please contact our customer centre.
