John Packer JP332O Rath Bb/F Tenor Trombone

Code: 102496, 102713

The JP332O Rath Bb/F tenor trombone is well suited to intermediate players and players looking for an instrument to take them up through the grades. This instrument would sit in easily in an orchestral trombone section, and likewise, brass bands and the lower parts in a big band. With an unparalleled level of craftsmanship, the JP332O Rath is the result of many years of development and features some exclusive components that players won't find on other instruments. A custom designed Rath leadpipe was created especially for the JP332O Rath which gives excellent response in all registers whilst retaining support for inexperienced players. The instrument also features an ergonomic thumb lever which is easy to adjust for smaller hands. 

Unique benefits

The JP Rath range of trombones have generated a lot of positive comments throughout the industry and are now in demand across the globe. They are characterised by a professional standard of workmanship and a high level of performance. Often compared with professional models, they compare very favourably with instruments from some of the top makers. The JP332O Rath features a large bore (.547") providing players power and projection in symphonic works whilst its 8.5" bell gives even greater sound projection that its smaller brother, the JP331 Rath. High Grade 80:20 brass is used in construction throughout.

Well stated "well suited to intermediate players" is how it is offered. I played Bach 42s for most of my career now. When I found this trombone and played it I very quickly turned to it as my go to Pro trombone. In comparison with Bach trombones it is much more free blowing, the trigger is quicker, and the price is very good for the quality of this instrument. Well it would be a good trombone for an intermediate player, it would be one of the best trombone they could get on the market for the price. I play this trombone in orchestras, brass bands, concert bands, and brass ensembles and it always meets every challenge and need I have in any given piece of of music.

Great Instrument-its made to last

I got my instrument about 8 months ago and it has been amazing. It has a great tone and allows me to have a greater range especially with the lower pitches. So far I have no dents and no major scratches due to its high-grade brass. The case is still in good condition and the straps make it much easier to travel with.

Yoy won't be sorry

I'm surprised there are not more reviews. I'm very pleased with this horn. The build quality is amazing. The sound is very good. The price is fantastic. I'm not an expert at gauging qualities such as "slotting" and other jargon but I like the feel and the openess.
