The RATH R400 Bb/F Tenor Trombone bridges the gap between student instruments and the brand's custom, modular, and artisan-crafted instruments. Michael Rath's expertise in trombone design and production has been utilized to create a series of trombones that are elegantly simple yet economically accessible. If you're looking to acquire an economical trombone without the potential complications of a modular solution like those in the concert range, the R400 is ideal.

Whatever your needs, it offers a unique combination of the highest level of design and craftsmanship in trombone making, with the production qualities that make Michael Rath trombones famous worldwide. For over 35 years, Rath has been inspired by the highest standards in brass manufacturing and has gained an international reputation in this regard. Thus, when quality materials meet stringent quality control, the location of manufacture becomes less significant.

There's a clear market demand for an economically priced range of Rath trombones, which unfortunately is impossible to produce in the UK. That's why Rath has worked closely with skilled artisans in a factory in Tianjin, China, to develop the exciting new R00 series of trombones.

The RATH R400 Bb/F Tenor Trombone from the R00 series is made in China and finished in England. It features a 0.547 inch (13.9 mm) bore, an 8.5 inch (216 mm) bell, and a traditional slide. Crafted in lacquered yellow brass, this instrument offers both an attractive aesthetic and exceptional performance. Its meticulous design ensures a quick response and powerful sound projection, allowing musicians to fully express their musicality.

The included backpack-style case with the trombone facilitates transportation and ensures adequate protection during travel. It also offers convenient storage for additional accessories such as mouthpieces and cleaning products.

The RATH R400 Bb/F Tenor Trombone is the ideal choice for musicians seeking a quality trombone at an affordable price. With its perfect blend of British craftsmanship and high-quality Chinese manufacturing, this instrument offers the renowned Rath sound without breaking the bank. Whether for a passionate music student or a professional seeking a reliable instrument, the RATH R400 is designed to meet the highest demands in terms of sound quality, playability, and durability.
