The range of John Packer trombones includes several models with different sizes. Different instrument voices make possible to have trombone choir.
The trombone (German: Posaune, Italian, French: trombone) is a musical instrument in the brass family. As with all brass instruments, sound is produced when the player's vibrating lips (embouchure) cause the air column inside the instrument to vibrate. Most brass instruments use valves to alter the pitch, but trombones have a telescoping slide mechanism instead. Many modern trombone models also have a valve attachment which lowers the pitch of the instrument. Variants such as the valve trombone and superbone have three valves similar to those on the trumpet.
John Packer's engineering has been put to the test and has done well in the construction of this compact and lightweight mini-trumbone of sticks, ideal for those with smaller hands or just like to take it with them.
The JP039 stick trombone has the spirit of a soloist. In B flat, the JP039 is a challenge for the younger students of the Conservatory but also for those who want to have a trombone with soprano sticks in their collection, to broaden their palette of musical options, at no great cost.
With medium piping, the JP039 has a smaller bell that does not affect its projection and resonance at all. With a golden finish, its brass body is resistant and its tubing has the exact dimensions to make the most of the expression of the slide of the rods.
It is no wonder that, with so much potential in such an accessible instrument, the JP039 is one of the most popular secondary instruments among musicians who know it, especially jazz musicians, who thus have access to yet another expressive technique in the glissandos that the trombone provides. .
The JP039 comes with a very practical and resistant case to be able to take it everywhere and in the most comfortable way possible thanks to its ergonomic design, with space for accessories and staves. The mouthpiece is a JP601, the John Packer inlet mouthpiece.
