Conn 88HNV Large Bore Tenor Trombone
As an homage to the vintage Conn 88H, the classic sound and feel of early Elkhart models were combined with modern-day features to create a stunning example of balance and beauty. The 88HNV rejuvenates the iconic vintage-era trombone starting with the traditional rose brass bell, which is modeled after the bell weight from Emory Remington's original 88H.
The modified Minick-style F-attachment wrap offers some of the immediacy of response of the traditional closed wrap without becoming overly resistant and losing its openness and resonance. Other features include an updated valve lever, rosewood thumb paddle, and new engraving that weaves through four eras of Conn history. Includes a redesigned slim profile lightweight hardshell case with faux leather exterior and stowaway backpack straps.
