Edwards T350E Large-Bore Tenor Trombone – a respected orchestral and symphonic model known for its precision, flexibility, and refined tone.
This particular instrument was played lightly by a single owner for less than two years, then stored for over a decade before being acquired, serviced, and sold by The Brass Exchange.
It features the 8.5″ yellow-brass 321CF bell, appreciated by professional players for its even response across all dynamics and registers.
The T-BCN handslide, with its Bach-style end-crook, provides a slightly deeper and more resonant low range while maintaining smooth, agile slide action.
The gold-brass tuning slide adds a touch of warmth and blend favored by orchestral performers.
At the time of sale, this T350E had been freshly cleaned and fully serviced, with the valve operating quietly and the slide straight and responsive, free of wear or plating defects.
It included a premium Edwards/Getzen wood-shell case in excellent condition, along with a mute, tuner, cleaning kit, and lubricants – a comprehensive package rarely seen with pre-owned horns.
New T350E models often involve a 3- to 6-month wait; this well-maintained example was ready to play immediately.
Today, this page remains part of our historical archive as a reference for professional and advanced players seeking information on the Edwards T350E’s design, performance qualities, and resale history.
