Tenor Trombone 'Kissbone' by Schagerl

KISSBONE

ABOUT THE KISSBONE

Every musician dreams of playing on an

instrument designed perfectly to suit their

needs.

I envisioned a trombone that would produce a

brilliant sound quality, had perfect intonation

and was free blowing across all registers.

Together with the Schagerl company, I designed

the 'Kissbone', incorporating features which

enable me to not only play powerfully, but soft

and tenderly with smooth and easy legato.

The F attachment is designed in a figure 8 system and functions as a super highway for the air stream, being especially advantageous for low register playing. The Kissbone offers a rich tonal palatte with the harmonics it produces and gives me the versatility that is essential for playing in a group such as Mnozil Brass.

I chose a combination of vintage lacquer and gold plating for my Kissbone, making this already outstanding instrument as attractive to the eye as it is to the ear.

Thank you Schagerl, I couldn’t have asked for a better instrument!
