BAC Artist Elliot Mason Tenor Trombone – Red Brass
BAC stands for Best American Craftsmen and is based in Kansas. Over the last two decades, BAC has become one of America's hottest trombone manufacturers - and rightly so. The instruments are handcrafted with the greatest care and appeal to professionals and ambitious amateurs alike.
The Elliot Mason Signature is named after the legendary jazz trombonist Elliot Mason, who plays with Wynton Marsalis' Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, among others. Mason is a figure of the modern jazz renaissance and his signature trombone reflects exactly that: an instrument that masters jazz, but also big band, pop and musicals.
With the dual-bore system (.500″/.525″), red brass bell and hand engraving, this trombone brings warmth, projection and independence - an instrument for musicians looking for their own chair .
