Pbone PBONE YELLOW

A "Jiggs Whigham" Edition: the pBone spirit with its own identity

The pBone has established itself as an innovative alternative to the traditional trombone by focusing on lightweight materials and immediate playability. This pBone Jiggs Whigham version follows this philosophy: preserving the DNA of the Bb tenor trombone while offering a fun, accessible, and easy-to-carry instrument. Available in multiple colors, it fully embraces its modern look without sacrificing the playing experience.

Who is it for, and in which styles?

Thanks to its featherweight and practical design, this tenor trombone is well suited for beginners (music schools, first years, workshops), as well as intermediate players looking for a backup instrument for rehearsals, events, or travel. It naturally fits in fanfare bands, brass bands, variety music, and any context where you want to play without worrying about transport while maintaining the feel of a real trombone.

Sound and design

The pBone Jiggs Whigham surprises with its ability to deliver a credible tenor trombone sound, featuring easy response and good playability. The 12.7 mm bore (small bore) promotes comfortable handling, a more direct attack, and a satisfying sense of control, especially useful for learning. Its 8" bell and ABS construction contribute to a lightweight and manageable instrument, while the fiberglass slides provide stability and smooth slide action. In terms of design, its colors give the instrument a strong personality, ideal for standing out on stage or in marching bands.

Recommended compatible accessories

This trombone comes with a case and a small bore plastic mouthpiece. The most relevant addition is a slide maintenance product (slide spray/slide oil) to ensure smooth slide action over time. A microfiber cloth can also be useful to keep the body clean after rehearsals.
