Carbon fiber bass trombone stand. Second generation (lightweight model) The top cap was not included from the time of purchase, and a substitute is used to prevent the inside of the bell from being scratched (see image 3). Although it is for bass trombones, tenor basses can also be used. (Cannot be stored.) It is difficult to get this item in Japan, so how about this opportunity? Domestic price: 65,000 yen From the official website: The 530-gram = 1.2-pound carbon fiber tenor trombone stand has four legs with rubber contact points and a large footprint. The vertical support that supports the trombone is actually three posts that overlap each other. The height can be easily and safely adjusted with a friction connection. The trombone itself is supported by two synthetic rings of different diameters lined with felt. These rings can slide up and down and can be fixed in any position on the stand, so they fit perfectly with the bell and bore of any instrument. The vertical pole is not actually perfectly vertical, but slightly angled. Therefore, the center of gravity of the instrument is directly above the center of the stand, providing excellent balance and stability despite its light weight. When carrying, all four legs fit together, and all legs fit inside the tube that forms the "vertical" pole. In this way, the stand, which is reduced in height to about 35 cm = 13 inches, fits snugly inside the bell of the instrument. The exact meaning here is that it will not rattle in the case because it cannot move inside the instrument. You won't feel the extra weight of the trombone case, and you can always carry a reliable trombone stand with you. There is no extra luggage, and no extra check-in at the airport.
