Yamaha YSL-697ZB Black Lacquer Series Trombone

The Yamaha YSL-697ZB is a great lead trombone. It is full of character, with a multi-dimensional sound that's perfect for a wide spectrum of playing styles and situations. It has a sweet sound when you want it, and as such it is a great ballad horn, or for playing soft but brisk melodies. But lean into it a little bit and the brilliance or bite comes barreling out of this horn whenever you need it. It has plenty of character and complex overtones for it to records beautifully, and it additionally has great projection for solos. There is a beautiful 'sheen' in the tone when using slide vibrato that you just can't find on most other modern horns.

One of the first things you notice when you try the Z is its response. It speaks immediately—probably faster than any trombone you've ever played! When playing very fast phrases, the clarity of each note is outstanding. You don't have to work as hard on the Z to sound great.

This professional-quality "Z" Trombone features a .484"-.490" dual bore, 7-1/2" yellow brass bell, and a striking black lacquer finish. Includes a SLC-690 case and 45C2 mouthpiece.
