Alto Trombone Slides
Edwards trombones are available with either the standard weight or an optional heavier slide (specified by "N"). All slides come with three interchangeable leadpipes.
The A65-1 is the standard-weight .500 bore slide. Quick in response, the A65-1 blows freely in all registers. A lighter tone can be achieved with this slide in comparison to the A65-1N.
The A265-1N is the heavier-weight slide. It has nickel outer tubes and a yellow brass end crook. The A65-1N provides players with a centered sound that slots "tighter" than the lightweight slide. Many players perceive the sound of the nickel slide to be darker than the A65-1.

In Their Own Words
"I've been blessed with this instrument for several years and I m still discovering new things about it everyday. With this horn, I'm limited only by my own imagination and technical shortcomings. I feel like anything is possible. It inspires me to take chances and go for whatever I m hearing, no matter how extreme. I couldn t ask for a better vessel through which to communicate.
"Thanks to Christan, Ron and Cathy and all of the other wonderful people at Edwards for helping me realize my dreams."
