The Yamaha YSL-354E is one of the most played and best-rated tenor trombones in its class - designed for beginners, advanced players and returnees who are looking for a reliable, easy-to-play trombone with real Yamaha workmanship. This example is in great condition and has been recently checked and overhauled by us.
The sound of the YSL-354 is balanced and pleasantly warm - equally appealing in all registers and without the pitfalls of cheaper instruments. The intonation is remarkably stable for this price range, the slide runs freely and precisely. With the 354, Yamaha relies on proven design principles that function reliably over the long term, even in daily practice.
Yamaha has stood for consistently high manufacturing quality and quality control for decades - the 354E is a typical example of this: solid, well thought-out, durable.

As a professional musician, I tested this YSL-354 intensively: The slide runs perfectly, the intonation is remarkably stable for this class, and the condition is really good for a used instrument. If you are looking for a reliable trombone without compromises in workmanship, this is the right place for you.
It is the first choice for lessons, the amateur orchestra or when returning to music. Regular interior care with the REKA care set keeps the slide in top shape over the long term. A trombone stand like the K&M 149/9 reliably protects the instrument from the most common form of damage - falling over during rehearsal.
