The YAMAHA Xeno YSL 882 Bb/F Tenor Trombone is a high-level instrument from Yamaha's Xeno range. Made in Japan, it is designed to meet the expectations of the most demanding musicians. Featuring a heavy-duty construction and a hand-hammered copper bell measuring 8.66 inches (220 mm), it delivers exceptional power and projection.

The slide, available in an 'Open Wrap' or closed style, allows for smooth and comfortable airflow, offering quick response and optimal playability flexibility. The narrow slide ensures closer positions for faster and more precise playing.

The craftsmanship quality is impeccable, with particular attention paid to intonation and sound balance. However, the price may be considered high compared to competitors. While the Xeno YSL 882 trombone offers excellent overall performance, its sound projection may be less than some competitors.

In terms of tonality, some musicians might feel a lack of warmth and distinctive sound identity. However, this can vary according to individual preferences.
