The trombone is an aerophone from the family of metals, which appeared in the 15th century. It has a lower sound than the trumpet and higher than the tuba and its name means big trumpet. It has been a fundamental part of the metal sections of various types from orchestras, philharmonic bands to big bands.

The rod version works by moving a plunger to give the different notes, with the particularity of being able to make glissandos, which allows it a unique expressiveness. The JP134 is a piston version, with a mechanism similar to the traditional trumpet.
