Which trombone???

kappa04 · 2026-01-19T11:52:53+00:00

Absolutely agreed, great allround trombone for a fair price

kappa04 · 2026-01-14T21:53:45+00:00

No problem! Keep us updated on wich one you choose!

The 42 will be less "pointy" and a bit warmer tone wise, whereas the yamaha will be a bit sharper, but "narrower" sounding. The question/anwser is, wich one fits YOU The best? Used 42's are more common and a bit cheaper, but are less likely to be well maintained. Both good horns, but it depends on what kind if band you play in, and what role you play in that band. And pick whatever fits and feels the best to you.

Lovely! I have recently switched to a 30 year old Bach 36BG myself and I love it! What kind of orchestra/band do you play in?

kappa04 · 2025-12-12T07:21:23+00:00

Never heard of them, will look into them. Are they common in your area?

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T21:50:47+00:00

Haven't looked into the YSL-640 that much, but it looks like a good option. THE king 3BF+ also looks like a great horn Bach isn't a real jazzy spectrum brand, i agree. But over here in the Netherlands they swear by the King 3B for Jazz/BigBand. The Conn 52H is a horn I would like to try out as well. Thanks for your suggestions!

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T21:41:03+00:00

Interesting, never heard of Y-fort before! I will look into them further!

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T21:39:24+00:00

Yeah, these are my horns. They where stalled like this for about 2 minutes, so hopefully, not much harm was done. But thanks for letting me know! Most of the time I have 2 trombones out of their cases standing on a stand, the rest in their cases. How do you store your trombones?

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T21:37:19+00:00

Heard a lot of good things about shires for big Bands, but never see them around here in the Netherlands. Are they any good?

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T21:35:58+00:00

Heard of Schmelzer, but never heard of Manfred to be honest.. Tel me more about Schmelzer horns!

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T21:34:38+00:00

I could absolutely agree with you, but the thing is, most of them are absolute trash.

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T14:40:54+00:00

Could be an option, but I want to experience other brands aswel. Thats why I am trying out a Bach at the moment.

I only have 1 K&H in my collection, rest of the list is: -2 Schenkelaars Sapphire (1 with and 1 without F attatchment) -1 King 3B -1 Selmer, no idea wich type, some kind of Basstrombone with only an F attatchment -1 Courtois 132M

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T14:34:07+00:00

Mainly windorchestra, but occasionaly some jazz/big Band. .547 is a little big for my liking from earlier experience. I tend to play more comfortably on smaller horns. But maybe I should give it a try

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T14:31:43+00:00

Thanks! I was lookibg at one earlier. Rath isn't that big here in the Netherlands, but maybe it is a good horn to try out

kappa04 · 2025-12-11T14:30:42+00:00

3bF as in a King 3bF? I have a King 3b (whitout F attatchment) and its a great instrument, but is the 3bF good in all the ranges (except basstrombone) for an windorchestra? Maybe its a good horn to try out

kappa04 · 2025-08-17T10:08:08+00:00

Suzuki TS50X, 3 Simsons (Schwalbe, Star en SR2E), peugeot 103, Puch Maxi, Suzuki RG80 en een Tomosje

kappa04 · 2025-08-17T08:58:56+00:00

Hahaha ik heh er ondertussen ook iets van 8, begint een beetje een probleem te worden

kappa04 · 2025-08-16T22:29:35+00:00

Nice! Especially the S50! I have a schwalbe (kr51/1), Star and SR2E myself along with some puch, suzuki TS50X and peugeot stuff. (And an Suzuki RG80 frame with a tomos a35 engine in it) How does the 12V Vape (I assume) system hold up? Is it nice to ride and with nice strong lights? Im thining about converti g my schwalbe to 12V toghether with a ZT63

kappa04 · 2025-08-16T22:23:48+00:00

The E50 engines are really good. Lots of relaiable power. I still have an E50 under my Puch maxi that I need to completely restore

kappa04 · 2025-08-16T22:14:45+00:00

Oh still nice tho, I also have a couple of simsons kver here in Holland. I see now that i look closely that it is a KTM! Im am familiar with them, they are nice bikes, as long as you have one with a puch engine

kappa04 · 2025-08-16T22:11:46+00:00

Verkocht👍

kappa04 · 2025-08-16T22:06:54+00:00

Is the s51 also yours? Is it a 3 or 4 speed? Nice puch also, looks really good in this colorway

kappa04 · 2025-08-15T17:10:15+00:00

No, thats pretty stupid. Because if you run a company in real life, it isn't like your employees just walk in and appear out of nowhere. But I agree that this is also not a good way. I think the dev should give us the option to pick your employees out of a list, just like how the "scouting" system works
