Bach by Conn Selmer A42I Artisan Professional Tenor Trombone

Bach by Conn Selmer A42I Artisan Professional Tenor Trombone

The A42I combines the great features of an Artisan A47I “Infinity” valve section with the option of a 42 bell. Identical in many ways, the one aspect that stands out differently is the rate of taper compared to the 47 bell. The 42 bell taper is more gradual, offering a little more breadth or width of sound. It features the “Infinity” axial flow valve. This patented valve design eliminates the metal-to-metal contact found in any other axial flow design through the use of sealed bearings both in the nose and in the back plate. This assures tight tolerances that will resist wear over time. The .547" bore Artisan handslide features a brass cross brace on the inner slide and contoured waterkey, with newly designed threaded leadpipe receiver. This model includes three interchangeable brass leadpipes to allow players more options to fit their individual needs.
