  • ; 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)

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

Reviews around sound (4.50 of 5)

  • 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
  • It is not quite as bright as a brass horn, but a smooth dark sound is also quite pleasing
  • The sound on it is great - very comparable to the metal version and is as loud as you would expect from any trombone
  • Good sound for what it is, and a fun instrument to have

  • You can development a very good tone if you work at it.
  • He says the this has a nice warm tone and will be good for jazz, if that means anything to you.
  • My pBone was making a nice, loud, even tone right away, with no delay
  • The tone is terrible and the slide is noisy

Reviews around instrument (4.40 of 5)

Reviews around color (4.03 of 5)

  • I received the wrong color.
  • Finally, fun colors available for these plastic instruments really up the "cool" factor.
  • The blue color was striking
  • Not only does it come in one of my favorite colors, but it was LESS than renting
  • 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

Reviews around price (4.03 of 5)

  • The price vs quality is unbelievable
  • 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)

  • 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.
  • The pBone doesn't sound as nice as that horn, but it's mighty good, and only $150
  • 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.
  • Light, good tone, and you don't have to worry about it in the rain like you do your expensive horn.
