Butler Trombones C5 Small Bore Tenor Trombone

Butler Trombones and its founder, David Butler, have become the go-to designer and builder of carbon fiber handslides and instruments in the world.

Based in Texas, Butler Trombones features a unique carbon fiber construction, allowing for incredibly lightweight and durable instruments that provide all of the sound and response of brass instruments.

Their C5 model Small Bore Tenor Trombone is designed as a more open-blowing alternative to their original .500" bore Lemondrop model. It features a .500” bore handslide (chrome-plated nickel silver inner slide, carbon fiber outer slide) with removable carbon fiber leadpipe and an 8” carbon fiber bell that has a more open stem and taper matching with a single-radius tuning slide. Comes with a gig bag and maintenance supplies.

Note: Other finishes and configurations are available to order; contact the Trombone Shop for more information.
