In every nook and corner of the world where trombones are used, you will find “King” Trombones and satisfied owners. The “King” was an outstanding Trombone from the first one made, because it embodied new ideas, improved construction, finer workmanship and helped the trombonist to do better work with less effort, and produce some effects he could not do before. With the latest improvements- dual bore, light weight, easier and faster working slides, more volume and ease of playing in the upper register, perfect intonation and wonderful tone (such as only a “King” has), the improved balance and easier working slide in the 7th position, makes it the ideal Trombone.
