{"product_id":"xo-xo1632gllt-228999","title":"XO1632GLLT","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA series crafted for jazz aesthetics, in collaboration with John Fedchock\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the trombone world, jazz demands specific requirements: immediate response, fast slide, present sound without harshness, and ease of attack that respects dynamics. The \u003cstrong\u003eJazz series\u003c\/strong\u003e was developed with this in mind, in partnership with \u003cstrong\u003eJohn Fedchock\u003c\/strong\u003e, a renowned trombonist and arranger, to offer an instrument oriented toward \"big band\" performance and solo playing. The concept is simple: to recapture the feel of a lively and expressive trombone, capable of fitting into an ensemble mix while maintaining a true palette of timbres.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe concept of the \u003cstrong\u003eultra-light bell\u003c\/strong\u003e fully aligns with this approach: gaining liveliness, projection, and phrasing precision, with a response that follows the musician through fast passages as well as soft attacks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFor which musician and styles?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis trombone is primarily aimed at \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to advanced\u003c\/strong\u003e musicians seeking a responsive and coherent instrument for \u003cstrong\u003ejazz\u003c\/strong\u003e (combo, big band), \u003cstrong\u003epop\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efunk\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ebrass bands\u003c\/strong\u003e, and all situations where clean articulation and natural presence are desired. The \u003cstrong\u003eultra-light slide\u003c\/strong\u003e will particularly appeal to those working on speed, position accuracy, and the \"vocal\" phrasing typical of jazz trombone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to the luthier adjustment, it is also very suitable for a musician returning to the instrument or who wants a reliable trombone for rehearsals and concerts, with an immediately comfortable playing feel.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSound and design\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a \u003cstrong\u003ebore of 12.70 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e, this trombone offers an interesting balance: enough ease to support a stable air column while maintaining a \u003cstrong\u003equick response\u003c\/strong\u003e and easy projection in the mid to high register, key areas in jazz contexts. Generally, it provides a clean attack, good note definition, and effective projection, particularly appreciated in section playing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e190 mm ultra-light bell\u003c\/strong\u003e contributes to the sense of liveliness: the sound \"leaves\" quickly, dynamics come out more directly, and the instrument reacts subtly to variations in breath and articulation (legato, accents, ghost notes). Regarding tone color, the choice of bell material allows refining the sonic signature: \u003cstrong\u003ebrass\u003c\/strong\u003e tends toward brightness and clarity, very effective for \"cutting through\" an ensemble, while \u003cstrong\u003erose brass\u003c\/strong\u003e often highlights a warmer roundness and a more velvety texture, interesting for ballads and solo playing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eRecommended compatible accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo get the best from a light slide and maintain its smoothness, you can consider a \u003cstrong\u003eslide lubricant\u003c\/strong\u003e (cream or oil), a \u003cstrong\u003ewater spray\u003c\/strong\u003e for humidification, as well as a \u003cstrong\u003etrombone cleaning swab\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003emicrofiber cloth\u003c\/strong\u003e. A \u003cstrong\u003etrombone stand\u003c\/strong\u003e (universal size) is also very practical for rehearsals and on stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFamily\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003etrombone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e190 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eJazz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eultra-light bell\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDevelopment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003epartnership with John Fedchock\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial (choice depending on version)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ebrass or rose brass\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:9;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBore\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e12.70 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003einstrument adjusted by a luthier (ready to play)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:5;--wb-r:10;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSlide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eultra-light\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrientation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ejazz playing, precise articulation, quick response\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"XO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54358502408467,"sku":"228999","price":2582.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/e659292336ea476eb1f34f38e843179e5f76ddc5_VXO_XO1632GLLT_393f222b-e049-4d71-8ae5-1a3c12b92fdc.jpg?v=1789487623","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/xo-xo1632gllt-228999","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
