"Since discovering the T350, I have been
amazed with its consistency of sound, response, and resistance
combined with the amount of control it provides me in
regard to
timbre and dynamic contrast.
This trombone allows me to play the most delicate soloistic
passages to the heaviest orchestral literature with equal ease.
The Edwards T350 is by far the finest and most versatile instrument
that I've ever played."
