  • ; it's light, fun, slide works good, plays like a real trombone, however, the tone is not comparable to the real thing.

Reviews around pbone (4.53 of 5)

  • I'm a sophomore in high school marching and concert band and the pBone is great for both
  • A completely different experience from pBones 1 & 2.I have to say BWW gets top marks for their painless returns and pBone gets a C- for their quality control issues.
  • so for Christmas she just received her blue pBone and she LOVES
  • Altogether I love the pBone and reccomend it to any beginner or anyone that just wants to have some fun!
  • The brass can be played to louder volumes and rings out more, but the pBone is plenty loud when it needs to be.

Reviews around color (4.03 of 5)

  • I first purchase one in Green, but I love the white color more and they work well.

  • The pBone doesn't sound as nice as that horn, but it's mighty good, and only $150
  • Light, good tone, and you don't have to worry about it in the rain like you do your expensive horn.
  • A horn like this would be so perfect for marching or for gigs
  • I mostly play on a Yamaha YBL-830 bass trombone, but I wanted to get a lighter horn for some of the gig's that I don't need such a large horn, or don't trust the area I am playing for a larger horn to be safe.
