A Powerful Trombone for Powerful Musicians
The Jupiter JTB1180 will help you advance and improve your playing. Boasting great intonation with a fantastic sound without a large price tag, the JTB1180 will comfortably take you past your grade 7. Thanks to the incredible tone of the Jupiter trombone, the JTB1180 is ideal for orchestras, brass bands, or big bands.
The Jupiter JTB1180 features everything you would expect from an intermediate level bass trombone. The open wrap system helps to reduce both air resistance and the number of connections between the main body and the attachments. This offers less back pressure and a more open feel when the triggers are engaged. Because of this, the open wrap system is the favourite for many musicians who prefer freer playing and less vibration
Premium Materials
The JTB1180 bass trombone is designed to provide you with a velvety tone - ideal for any musical setting. Similar to professional trombones, the inner slide on Jupiter trombone is made from hard chrome-plated nickel silver. Nickel silver is used as it is very dense and less likely to bend. The slide is then hard chrome-plated to ensure the smooth finish for the best possible action.
To help you produce your best possible sound, the bell is made from quality yellow brass. Yellow brass provides a nice balance between different playing styles, which is why it is the most widely used and commonly played alloy in the world. These key attributes are enough to motivate and inspire you to want to perfect your skills and musicianship.
Included Accessories
Jupiter's hard case offers a practical design that is easy to carry. Whether you're going to rehearsal, gigs, or concerts, this case will protect your bass trombone from scratches and knocks. The dense case will keep your instrument looking, feeling, and sounding like new for longer. Also included is a mouthpiece so you can start playing straight away.
