This Getzen Canadian Brass model is a large bore straight tenor trombone with bold presence and refined craftsmanship. Featuring an 8.5" silver-plated bell and matching silver handslide, this horn takes a .547 large shank mouthpiece and delivers a full, resonant tone with a crisp response and powerful low-end core.
The instrument is in excellent condition—super clean, dent-free, and freshly cleaned and serviced in our shop. Slide alignment is spot-on, with a smooth, tension-free feel that players will appreciate immediately. Whether you’re looking for a large bore jazz horn or a standout horn for marching or commercial use, this Getzen delivers both power and nuance in equal measure.
Getzen’s collaboration with the Canadian Brass was designed to offer professional performance characteristics in a straightforward design—no valve section, no frills—just a bright, projecting, and resonant horn that feels open and agile. It’s also one of the most visually striking options for marching applications, with its full silver-plated finish making it easy to spot in any lineup.
Includes the premium Edwards/Getzen wood shell case in excellent condition.
How does the Canadian Brass model differ from a standard Getzen tenor trombone?
This model features a straight bore design with no F-attachment and includes full silver plating, offering a brighter tone with extra presence. It’s also optimized for projection and fluid slide response, making it ideal for jazz, lead, or marching applications.
Is this a good marching band horn for an advanced student?
Absolutely. Compared to most marching slide trombones, this plays much bigger and with better clarity. The large bore makes it a great step-up option for students moving into advanced ensemble settings.
Will a Bach 42 or large shank mouthpiece work with this?
Yes, this horn accepts standard .547 large bore mouthpieces, making it easy to pair with Bach, Schilke, or other major brands.
