- The Schilke Axial Flow ValveThe Schilke Axial Flow Valve permits an even feel and response throughout all registers, producing an instrument that closely mimics the feel of a straight tenor trombone. Unlike some other designs, the Schilke Axial Flow Valve is incredibly maintenance-free, requiring a service schedule on par with that of a standard rotor. That means less time worrying about the valve and more time playing your instrument. is the key feature of the ST20 trombone. It has a stainless steel rotor.
- A closed wrap standard rotor is also available for players who desire a more traditional setup built with Schilke precision.
- A straight ST20 is also available, with no rotor.
- Additionally, all Schilke valves come standard with a custom adjustable wood-grain thumb rest.
- This instrument has a yellow or rose brassGenerally, a yellow brass bell will provide a strong fundamental sound with clarity and consistent overtone structure throughout all dynamic levels. With its higher copper content, a rose brass bell will provide a rich, dark sound at lower dynamic levels, but will tend to reach “red line” brilliance levels faster than a yellow brass bell. 8.5" hand hammered bell.
- These Schilke hand slidesAll Schilke handslides are assembled to strict tolerances from the highest quality parts, aligned multiple times throughout the build and finish process, then hand-finished to assure consistent action. The quality control of our parts allows us to build slides that are free of stress and torsion, a major problem with many trombone slides. are .547" large bore slides with chrome plated inner tubes, yellow brass outer tubes, and nickel oversleeves. They are available with yellow brass or nickel end bows.
- Three interchangeable brass leadpipesThree interc hangeable brass leadpipes are included: 1 – Most compact sound, very clear articulation, most resistance. 2 – Standard leadpipe, more open sound than #1, more clear articulation than #3. 3 – Most open sound, somewhat more covered articulation, least resistance. are also included.
- There are four main tuning slideSquare-shaped tuning slides will tend to play more compact and focused, while round tuning slides will play more freely and yield a somewhat wider sound. The choice of yellow or rose material will affect playing characteristics as well. options available on Schilke trombones: yellow round, rose round, yellow square, and rose square.
