The YSL-882OR features a .547" bore and an open wrap F-attachment. Yamaha's coveted Xeno trombones feature a heavier gauge brass and a thick-walled, one-piece brazed bell, which has been hand-hammered thousands of times for the ultimate in a big orchestral sound. The F-attachment section gives a free-blowing response, and the entire instrument has an evenness and balance you have to experience to believe. The tone is flexible with a myriad of tonal colors, and gives you both powerful projection at fortissimo, and subtle control in the most delicate passages.
As with all new Yamaha Band Instruments, the YSL-882OR Xeno Trombone includes Yamaha’s unbeatable 5-Year Factory Warranty.
Included Accessories: trombone case, slide cream, untreated olishing cloth (large), cleaning rod, orchestral mouthpiece
Developed with Top Artists
The YSL-882OR was developed with Larry Zalkind, Principal Trombone of the Utah Symphony Orchestra.
New Balanced Response Rotor
The balanced response rotor system helps air release evenly into the F-attachment slide creating a smoother transition from the Bb open horn to the engaged F-attachment..
Reversed Tuning Slides
Both the main tuning slide and the F-attachment tuning are reversed, allowing for a less restricted airflow throughout the instrument.
Open wrap F attachment
The open wrap has a more open feel and quicker response while using the F attachment.
Rounded Slide Crook
Eliminating sharp turns in the crook will open the feel and response of the instrument.
Adjustable Thumb Paddle
The rotor paddle is adjustable for optimum comfort.
Mechanical Linkage
Using a mechanical linkage on a rotor gives it strong, smooth operation.
