For generations, E.K. Blessing has offered an affordable large bore F-attachment trombone for the advanced trombonist without compromising on build quality and playability. Approved by educators for decades, the classic B88 was a traditional first choice for a serious student, laying the foundation in high school bands across the USA.

The BTB1488 trombones are an evolution of this legacy. Design refinement in the hand-slide construction and body bracing offer a more resonant instrument that is responsive and easier to play with fantastic projection. At Blessing, our core values remain the same. The BTB1488 Performance trombones offer accessibility to a path for rapid growth and musical development along with a modern playing experience that rival many professional models.

BTB1488OR Resistance and sound = Freer Blowing / More Open. The additional copper content in rose brass offers a more complex tone, rich in overtones. A rose bell gives a warm, dark sound at softer dynamics, moving to greater brilliance and improved projection at louder dynamic levels.
