Tenor Trombone Slides

Edwards trombones are available with either the standard weight or an optional heavier slide. The heavier slide is specified with the letter "N", which refers to nickel sleeves and end crook. These slides can provide darker sounds that hold together well at extreme forte volumes. All slides come with three interchangeable leadpipes.

T350 & T327

The following slides are compatible with both Edwards tenor models.

The T-STD(N) is the standard .547 single bore slide. This slide has a round end crook similar to Conn slides. Quick in response, the T-STD blows freely in all registers. A very centered tone can be achieved with this slide.

The T-BC(N) has a bass end crook similar to Bach slides. The squared-off design of this crook allows for a very open low register and bigger sound overall than the T-STD and T-STDN slides. This slide is also a .547 bore.

The T-DB(N) is a .547/.562 dual bore slide. This slide has a bass crook and provides the biggest sound in the middle and lower registers, ideal for an orchestral second trombonist.

T327

All of the above slides may be used on the T327. However, there are slides exclusive to this model.

The T327-1(N) is a .525 single bore slide. Using this slide, the T327 is similar in size to a Bach 36.

The T327-2N is a .525/.547 dual bore slide. This slide helps bridge the gap between the medium and large tenor trombones. This slide is only available with the nickel sleeves and end crook.
