Marching Trombone for Sale by Blessing Instruments

For generations, E.K. Blessing has offered an affordable large bore F-attachment trombone for the advanced trombonist without compromising on build quality and playability. Approved by educators for decades, the classic B88 was a traditional first choice for a serious student, laying the foundation in high school bands across the USA.

The new BTB1488 trombones are an evolution of this legacy. Design refinement in the hand-slide construction and body bracing offer a more resonant instrument that is responsive and easier to play with fantastic projection. At Blessing, our core values remain the same. The BTB1488 Performance trombones offer accessibility to a path for rapid growth and musical development along with a modern playing experience that rival many professional models.

BTB1488OS Resistance and sound = Freer Blowing / More Open. Very resonant with better projection and rich character particularly at louder dynamic levels.

Open Wrap: The term wrap refers to the configuration of additional tubing for the F-attachment section of the trombone. The open wrap has fewer bends and a straighter pathway for the air; providing a freer blowing option.

Yellow Brass Bell: (70% copper 30% zinc) – Yellow brass offers a consistent timbre at all dynamic levels and registers with wonderful projection.

Silver Plate Finish: Silver plating is thinner than lacquer providing more resonance and brilliance, which is ideal for outdoor performance. However, a silverplated horn will require more maintenance because it will tarnish over time.
