The chrome plated nickel silver inner handslide tubes provide the ideal surface for smooth and quick handslide action. The rose brass material used in the professional bell and handslide material produces a deep, warm resonant sound while the clear lacquer finish adds a subtle warmth overall. The C.G. Conn 88H professional trombone is ideal for both symphonic and solo performance. Available in silver-plate finish as model 88HSP.<\/p>\n<h4>Features:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>.547\u2033 primary bore<\/li>\n<li>.562\u2033 bore through F attachment<\/li>\n<li>8-1\/2\u2033 rose brass bell<\/li>\n<li>Open wrap F attachment with standard rotor<\/li>\n<li>Rose brass outer slide<\/li>\n<li>Clear lacquer finish<\/li>\n<li>C.G.

Conn started making mouthpieces in 1873 and in 1875 produced his first cornet, probably the first to be made in America. In 1880 Conn was elected Mayor of Elkhart, Indiana which is where Conn trombones are still made today. At this time he was making a larger variety of instruments and developed an interest in the unusual. In 1907 he\u00a0built an immensaphone, the largest horn in the world at 12 feet in diameter and 35 feet long. Other firsts included the first American saxophone and the sousaphone which was built to the specifications of John Philip Sousa. C.G Conn retired in 1915 but the company lives on.<\/p>\n<p>The best known instruments made by Conn today are trombones, particularly the 8H and 88H which have become the industry standard within the world\u2019s symphony orchestras. Recognised for their superior tone and ability to take extreme dynamics without breaking up, Conn trombones take some beating.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/trevorjonesltd.co.uk\/shop\/product-category\/brass-accessories\/trombone-accessories\/trombone-mouthpieces\/\">Trombone mouthpieces<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/trevorjonesltd.co.uk\/shop\/product-category\/brass-accessories\/trombone-accessories\/trombone-mutes\/\">Trombone mutes<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>.547&#8243;
