This is a factory new Shires TY tuning slide, designed for tenor trombones in the Custom Series line, hand-built at the S.E. Shires workshop in Boston. As an authorized S.E. Shires Pro Shop dealer since 2012, The Brass Exchange offers this component with full factory warranty and expert support.
The TY model features a standard taper with drawn tubing, producing a broad, resonant tone with smooth intonation across registers. The drawn tubing contributes to a slightly lighter, more responsive feel, making it a versatile option for players seeking a traditional Shires sound with excellent control and projection.
Fitment is compatible with all S.E. Shires Custom Series tenor trombones, including both .525 medium-large bore and .547 large bore models. Thanks to Shires’ modular design, the same tuning slides may be used across these instruments, giving players greater flexibility in customizing their setup.
Available in stock for immediate delivery as part of our current Shires component inventory.
