Reviews around slide work (5.00 of 5)

  • The slide works great when it's dry but as condensation builds it becomes slower.
  • It's inexpensive, very durable (won't dent, etc.), very light weight, and the slide works well
  • It requires a considerable amount of work and experience to get the slide working properly.
  • ; it's light, fun, slide works good, plays like a real trombone, however, the tone is not comparable to the real thing.

Reviews around trombone (4.61 of 5)

  • Sounds just like my actual trombone, easy, very portable
  • The intonation is surprisingly good for such a cheap trombone, but not perfectly on pitch
  • Your small-bore mouthpiece will fit if you want a little more robust sound for recordings or semi-serious performances, but the attached plastic mouthpiece (same color as the trombone itself) is good enough for casual playing.
  • I played trombone for 9 years in school and couldn't afford to buy a professional model when I graduated since I wasn't pursuing a professional career.
  • It 5 stars isn't because its the best trombone in the world.

Reviews around pbone (4.53 of 5)

  • Altogether I love the pBone and reccomend it to any beginner or anyone that just wants to have some fun!
  • 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.
  • The brass can be played to louder volumes and rings out more, but the pBone is plenty loud when it needs to be.
  • I'm a sophomore in high school marching and concert band and the pBone is great for both
  • The slide will never match our "real" trombone but the pbone is great for my son to schlep to school or for marching band

  • The sound on it is great - very comparable to the metal version and is as loud as you would expect from any trombone
  • The sound on it is great - very comparable to the metal version and is as loud as you would expect from any trombone
  • For a plastic trombone, the sound isn't that bad, although I would recommend using the regular mouthpiece like some of the experts suggested for better tone quality
  • And the sound is virtually indistinguishable from a traditional horn

Reviews around color (4.03 of 5)

  • Not only does it come in one of my favorite colors, but it was LESS than renting
  • I received the wrong color.
  • Very easy to assemble and the cool colors also make it lots of fun.
  • Also good for school marching bands whose directors want to display trombones in their school colors, as two-color or even three-color pBones are available
  • I first purchase one in Green, but I love the white color more and they work well.

  • BUT they will not honor the original price for yet another replacement.
  • These trombones are no substitute for the sound and quality of professional-level Bach, Getzen, Conn, Jupiter, Yamaha, etc., of course, but they make up for it in an affordable price and fun factor!

Reviews around horn (3.78 of 5)

  • Light, good tone, and you don't have to worry about it in the rain like you do your expensive horn.
  • 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.
  • I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who wants to pick up or continue playing trombone as a hobby but can't afford an intermediate or professional model horn
  • A horn like this would be so perfect for marching or for gigs
  • If you are looking for a cheap horn to play for starters, or in an area a cheap horn will be needed for bad location or marching band this horn should do the job.
