The YAMAHA Xeno YSL 881 Bb Tenor Trombone is part of the prestigious Xeno series, offering a perfect blend of power, warm and deep sound, and advanced technical construction.

Built in Japan with heavy tubing, the YSL 881 features a large, thick bell made of yellow or rose brass, hand-hammered to achieve a rich and open sound, ideal for orchestral performances. The large bore of 0.547 inches (13.89 mm) ensures precise response and great flexibility across all registers.

Equipped with a narrow slide and a lacquered finish, this instrument offers a pleasant and balanced playability, making note production easier. Its high-quality finish and well-adjusted mechanics guarantee excellent pitch accuracy.

However, it should be noted that the choice between a yellow brass and a rose brass bell can influence the sound character. The yellow brass bell delivers a clear sound with great projection but may lack depth. Conversely, the rose brass bell produces a warm and round sound but may have less projection.
