[Features]
Edwards, the custom brand of Getzen, the classic American trombone maker.T396-A, which has teamed up with Joseph Alessi, who has a great influence on orchestral players around the world.“Alessi horns."The T396-A is the first trombone to be produced by the Edwards Trombone Company. The Alessi Horn is a fixed model, which means that the various bells and pipes are not interchangeable, which was one of the main features of Edwards trombones in the past. Instead, the Alessi Horn is a fixed model, with a small metal rod called a "harmonic pillar" inserted into the "harmonic bridge" that connects the F pipe to the body of the instrument to adjust the blowing feel, the point at which the sound is captured, and the breadth and contour of the sound. The "Harmonic Pillar" is a small metal rod that is inserted into the "Harmonic Bridge" connecting the F pipe to the body. While inheriting the high functionality of the Edwards trombone, the trombone has a charming, warm sound that is reminiscent of the great trombones of the past.
