XO 1242L Bass Trombone

Dependent Valve System

The dependent valve system allows for greater flexibility in the lower register.

Two-piece Bell

The two-piece bell ensures consistent thickness with controlled resonance.

Interchangeable Leadpipes

The interchangeable leadpipes allow players to personalise their playing experience. Three different leadpipes are included:
-Yellow brass, length 220 mm: XO’s standard leadpipe, less resistance for players that prefer an open, free-blowing feel
-Yellow brass, length 260 mm: Provides that little extra resistance for better slotting and articulation
-Sterling silver, length 220 mm: Same dimensions as the standard leadpipe, offers solid fundamentals and a clear attack

Removable Counterweight System

The specially designed three-piece balance/counterweight system can be installed or removed with a threaded cap easily. It allows the performers to balance their instruments and offers a better playing experience.The performers can decide whether to use the counter weight system depending on their personal preferences.
