1242 Bass Trombones

The 1242 bass trombone with dependent valve system delivers a full and rich sound with the benefit of less resistance. Whether performing in a section or as a soloist, the 1242 provides the low end necessary for any musical genre.

Dependent Valve System

The dependent valve system allows for greater flexibility in the lower register.

Two-piece Bell

The two-piece bell ensures consistent thickness with controlled resonance.

Interchangeable Leadpipes

The interchangeable leadpipes allow players to personalize their playing experience. We offer three different leadpipes:
-Yellow brass, length 220 mm: Our standard leadpipe, less resistance for players that prefer an open, free-blowing feel
-Yellow brass, length 260 mm: Provides that little extra resistance for better slotting and articulation
-Sterling silver, length 220 mm: Same dimensions as our standard leadpipe, offers solid fundamentals and a clear attack

  Warning: This product can expose you to lead, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or reproductive harm. (https://www.p65warnings.ca.gov). For more information, view Our Statement On Proposition 65.
