DEMO - S. E. Shires Custom Trombone - TBMD - Michael Davis 10th Anniversary

$3,295.00

We have one of these amazing instruments available in the Limited Edition 10th Anniversary engraving. The bell has a small section with minor scratches in the finish. The instrument plays perfectly, but the finish is not perfect. The price has been adjusted because of the cosmetic flaw.

The (original) Michael Davis trombone was developed through a close collaboration between virtuoso Michael Davis and the craftsmen of S.E. Shires. The resulting instrument is genuinely unique and includes several specific design elements not found on other S.E. Shires Custom Series trombones. Top professional players from around the world, including New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo and London, have described the Michael Davis Trombone as the finest small-bore tenor trombone that they have ever played.

The lightweight nickel-silver handslide construction offers clean, precise articulations. The custom 7.5-inch, yellow-brass bell retains a clear, pure sound with strong fundamental, and keeps a very consistent tone color and overtone structure throughout the range of dynamics. This is combined with the ease of playing and projection for which S.E. Shires instruments are famed. Responsive and nimble, the Michael Davis model trombone is at home in any jazz or commercial setting.
