} Sound & CharacterKing's Premium Tenor Trombone - Bold & Crisp The King 4B is King's premium tenor trombone for classical music - and one of the most versatile trombones on the market. With the same bell and bore size as the Conn 88H or the Bach 42, it plays in the absolute professional league. This 1980 example comes with a gold brass bell, which gives the sound even more warmth and depth than yellow brass. The result: a fat, crisp sound with character and carrying capacity. Ideal for classical music, but just as convincing for the lower voices in a big band or in a jazz combo. Made in USA. Minimalist, elegant 2104 engraving.
