Yamaha's standard model valve trombone provides the rich noble tone of a trombone, but with the quick clean action of piston valves for those unfamiliar with slide positions.
Features
Tubular Braces
Long-lasting nickel-silver tubular braces contribute to the stability of the slide.
Balancer
The balancer found on the YSL–354VC perfectly proportions the instrument's weight.
Pressure formed tubing
Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance.
Laser-fused pluzuma welded bell
A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell which allows continuous even vibrations.
Weight distribution
The YSL–354VC is more comfortable to play because its superb weight distibution makes it easier to hold.
Bracing
The large, easy-to-hold, nickel-silver bracing guards against possible slide damage if the instrument is dropped. It also lessens fatigue while playing.
Mouthpipe
Yamaha trombones have mouthpipes featuring special acoustic designs allowing for precise intonation and greater blowing control.
