S.E. Shires Model X tuning slide for tenor trombone, yellow brass, with X taper design. This is a custom component made at the Boston, MA factory, showcasing the high standards of precision and craftsmanship that S.E. Shires is known for worldwide.
This tuning slide is designed for use with all large bore and medium bore Shires modular components, including bells and valve sections. The X taper design offers a more rapid transition from large to small diameter, resulting in a more compact, focused blow and enhanced projection.
While this slide is pre-owned, it is in excellent condition with no dents, dings, or structural repairs. It has also undergone a professional chemical bath and thorough cleaning to ensure top performance. Fit and alignment with other Shires components are excellent, making it ready to install and play.
