Up for sale is a Yamaha 630 medium bore (.525”) tenor trombone with its original case. It’s in immaculate condition with no visible imperfections. The slide is super fast and in great alignment. It has a big, warm sound, with an 8 ½” yellow brass bell. It’s a solid, well-built horn that plays great.
I bought it a few years ago to serve as my backup medium bore horn, but I now play small bore horns most of the time and just don’t need it anymore.

This is how Yamaha describes this model:
“The YSL-630 has a continuous taper bell section that improves intonation with even resistance in all registers. The chrome-plated, nickel silver, drawn inner slide is very durable and has a quick, sensitive response. The outer slide is one piece, drawn yellow brass and maintains an accurate diameter throughout its length. This type of construction ensures airtightness, smooth action, exceptional durability, and adds resonance to the sound. Long-lasting nickel-silver tubular braces contribute to the stability of the slide and enhance smooth slide action. Tuning slides are hand lapped to ensure an absolutely perfect fit. The virtually seamless bell-fused by high-energy laser-allows continuous, even vibration. The unique slide lock design on all Yamaha trombones keeps the slide locked in place to prevent it from accidentally falling. Large, easy-to-hold, nickel-silver bracing guards against possible slide damage if the instrument is dropped and also lessens fatigue while playing. Mouthpipe features a special acoustic design that allows precise intonation and greater blowing control.”
The case, by the way, is light and compact and fits easily in overhead bins on airplanes.
$1200 including shipping CONUS.

I forgot to mention that the case includes two keys, so you can lock it up.
Also, I would consider a trade for a Jiggs 2B.

This horn is once again available, after the buyer failed to pay.
