TromboneBuddy™ is not just for beginners. It also helps advanced players fine tune accuracy to perfect their sound. This musical assistant currently comes in two versions: Standard and for P-Bone, the plastic trombone which is great to learn on as well. Attach TromboneBuddy™ quickly and easily to any trombone. It attaches in a hurry to provide students of any playing level with precise position feedback of the slide.
TromboneBuddy™ is constructed of ultra light carbon fiber which makes it durable and sturdy without interfering with the slide movement. It attaches and detaches in seconds with clips that won’t damage the instrument. Choose a magnetic version which accentuates arm length memory while playing and helps students learn slide positions faster. TromboneBuddy™ easily stores in the instrument case when not in use.
Today’s trombone is also a little larger than the sackbuts. Even after these changes, the instrument is not necessarily more difficult to play than its ancestor. In fact, the instrument will be a little easier to play and have more flexibility and range than the sackbut, though it is still an instrument that can take a little getting used to when first learning how to play it.
