YAMAHA YSL-648 Tenor Bass Trombone [Large Bore] Contents ・Trombone Body ・Mouthpiece (YAMAHA 51B) ・Genuine Cleaning Rod ・Genuine Hard Case Specifications ・Series: Professional Series ・Bell/Body Material: Yellow Brass ・Bore Size: Large Bore (Thick Tube) ・Inner Slide Material: Nickel Silver ・F Section: Traditional Wrap ・Rotary System: String-operated ・Finish: Clear Lacquer ・Country of Manufacture: Japan I myself have been using trombones from European manufacturers for many years, but in the last few years I encountered the YAMAHA YSL-643, and I have been using it as my favorite ever since. I purchased this instrument used, and I was considering using it in parallel with the YSL-643, but since I don't use it very often, I am putting it up for sale. It is an old instrument, but as many of you know, it is a truly good instrument from a good era. As you can see in the photos, there are lacquer peeling and rust in various places, and as shown in photos 6-8, there are also slight dents in the tuning slide and bell section, so the price is set considering the condition. If you are concerned, please request dent repair at a musical instrument store near you. The F-attachment is not stuck, and the slide is smooth. The genuine hard case is for transportation only, and the mouthpiece should be considered a bonus. This model is characterized by stable pitch, moderate blowing feel, and a rich sound typical of a large-bore tenor bass, and due to its excellent balance, it is a popular model in the used market in recent years, mainly for beginners to intermediate players. It is a very easy-to-play instrument, so it is recommended for students and adults who are starting to play the trombone, or for those who are resuming after a long break! I have set a low price, so although it is an old instrument, why not get your own instrument? It will be carefully packed with bubble wrap and shipped via Yamato Transport. Please understand that this is a used item.
