Selling like new Shires Q36GR Bass Trombone. $3400.00

I recently purchased this trombone to add as a contrasting sound to my Rath, but have decided to move onto getting a different bass instead as I found the sound profile to be too similar to my current setup.I will be adding pictures shortly. Please let me know what questions you may have.

QBY bell: 91⁄2-inch, two-piece, hand-hammered “QII” taper in lightweight gold brass with soldered bead

Independent F/G♭ rotary valves

Q62 handslide: .562-inch, standard-weight yellow brass; nickel-silver crook

QYB tuning slide

Three interchangeable yellow brass leadpipes

Bell Engraving: S.E. Shires makers mark and traditional floral pattern

Includes Q Series bass case, mouthpiece, and care kit

Thanks!

Hey Brandon,

I am very interested in this instrument and would love to see some pictures of it! I also wanted to ask how you think it plays compared to other bass trombones?

Asking $2900 which is a steal for a horn that has only been play tested a few times. Buyer pays shipping.
