A Series 600 Inspired by the High-End Xeno
Yamaha professional trombones have long been recognized for their reliable tuning, playing comfort, and a sound color that is both dense and homogeneous. The Series 600 carries this DNA while incorporating technical features derived from the Xeno models, the brand's high-end reference. The result: a trombone designed to offer a power reserve and controlled projection, without sacrificing the flexibility essential to demanding musicians.
For Which Musicians and Styles?
This tenor trombone is primarily aimed at advanced trombonists and professionals seeking a reliable instrument for both rehearsals and concerts. Its Bb/F tuning (with extended range) makes it particularly well-suited for wind orchestra, brass band, big band, and classical or pop repertoire, where both presence in sound and excellent intonation stability are expected.
Sound and Design
The design clearly emphasizes a broad timbre and solid projection. The 2-piece yellow brass bell, hand-hammered, promotes wide diffusion and musical responsiveness, with appreciable warmth in the mid dynamics while maintaining clarity in the high register. The ML 13.34 mm bore balances power and control, while the "narrow" and lightweight slide enhances fluidity and attack precision. For finishes, the lacquer provides a refined aesthetic and suitable protection for intensive use.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
Delivered with a Yamaha SL-48S mouthpiece and a case, this trombone is ready to play right out of the box. To preserve the slide's smoothness daily, adding a slide maintenance kit (appropriate lubricant and spray) is an excellent playing habit, without affecting the instrument's compatibility.
