The S.E. Shires TW47NLW handslide is a professional-level, large bore (.547) tenor trombone slide designed for maximum flexibility and exceptional response. This particular example was a demo model, played only a few times and kept in perfect condition. The slide featured lightweight nickel outer slide tubes and a nickel silver end crook, offering a focused, brilliant sound with smooth articulation.
The TW47NLW is known for its quick response and effortless feel, making it a favorite among orchestral players, soloists, and commercial trombonists seeking added clarity and projection. This slide came with a #2 brass leadpipe, a versatile choice that provides a balanced blend of warmth and focus while allowing players to personalize their sound.
