S.E. Shires TBQAlessi Alto Trombone

Designed with New York Philharmonic principal trombonist and S.E. Shires artist, Joseph Alessi the Alessi Q Series Alto Trombone features a 2-piece medium-weight bell and a unique bell tuning design that promotes projection while still maintaining a broad, warm sound with alto character.

This trombone is particularly well suited for large ensemble settings but still has the flexibility needed for solo work. We've also found that this horn has excellent intonation for tenor players, which is typically tricky when switching over to alto.
