[@Thermionman]

Interesting..............I like the sound of the trombone in that particular room......

[@SergioJoelLeivaBenegas]

Great explanation! Thanks Jim!

[@lebronhardy8386]

The storage cages in the background look like what they use at a animal hospital to hold the pets.

HmMm

[@meganlily202]

Lebron Hardy lmao right!

[@kj4ilk]

To make things a little simpler for people here who don't understand the F attachment is basically so you don't have to extend the slide all the way out which for certain people is hard to do so what that button does if you push it and instead of going all the way out to the end you have your slide closer to you which makes it easier for certain notes to be played hopefully this doesn't confuse anyone but the trigger trombone is no different than the regular trombone as far as slide positions go you still have the same notes and the same sound it's just got an extra set of tubes on it

[@jimdugal]

yes I recently played a Rath trombone that was assembled in China but had Rath genuine parts. Price was about $1500 US. sold by Laconia Music 516.352.4070. good luck with your search!

[@jimdugal]

f and c can be played in 6 as well as with the trigger in 1st position

[@AntiqueAntarctica]

If you can play a high c (which is in 3rd position) with just the trigger engaged, can you also play the higher Eb (E flat(also 3rd position)) with just the trigger engaged? I ask because almost all the notes I play in music are above the staff. Thank you for the helpful video!

[@jimdugal]

Hi...yes I talk about the most common uses of the trigger...do what's best for you in the context of what you're playing!

[@AntiqueAntarctica]

Okay, thank you :)

[@bpaudel2767]

For anything above a normal c, the f attachment should not be used because of the obstruction of the straightness that gives the trombone its sound

[@camerincasesa6444]

Scout Scamp if this has already been answered sorry for the sudden noticifation, but the C you are talking about is really played in 6th position, and technically speaking the 3rd position C is an alternate position. The straight answer is that if it is played in 6th, it can be roughly be played in 1st with f attachment.

[@hanj31]

I thought the trigger lowered the fundamental by a 4th are you changing the partial to go from Bb to C?

[@js1459]

This would save me right now.

[@Dan-uy2ld]

Hey guys, have any of you come across SE Shire trombones. I have just ordered one as I tried it out and it sounded amazing compered to a conn 88H which is the other trombone I was thinking of purchasing

[@Kristian_Raices_]

With that tenor you could play an entire b flat scale just in 1st position just by using the valve

[@SammyBoe]

Haha, wrong you can't. But I think you might be able to with a bass trombone.

[@AOSMAKAKMS]

@@SammyBoe you’d have to keep the D trigger and lip it up

[@noahj217]

what type of mouthpiece are you using

[@jimdugal]

Hi...most people play a Bach 6 1/2 AL mouthpiece...the one I'm using is a Shilke but smaller than that...I play pop gigs and it helps my high range!

[@giopettigrass3058]

looking to buy an f attachment. Whats the model and company?

[@boham2003]

We are considering getting our son a F attachment trombone, and keeping his current student level non-F attachment instrument. One staying at school the other at home for practicing. The question is would practicing on one make it hard to play on the other? Switching back and forth, would that be confusing?

[@sicksvibez0116]

+Bob Hamilton No, It would not because the F attachment is just for playing things easier to play, they are the same mouthpiece, same pitch and everything it would be fine :)

[@yyyy1885]

It most certainly could make things harder. If the f attachment is a larger bore, it is awkward to switch back and forth for a beginning trombone player.

[@marieleftwich6002]

Lol I know someone who is in the position

[@joeykleinheider7648]

i’m late haha but what is your trigger tuned to? what is the tuning slide tuned to

[@jakegogolin5566]

so am I

[@a_literal_brick]

If a c and low f are both in 6th position, what is the difference between an f and c trigger?

[@jakegogolin5566]

i know you commented that 4 years ago, but f is also a c...

[@a_literal_brick]

@@jakegogolin5566 yeah. I know how to use the trigger now

[@DevLHeatScopE]

Do you have any referrals for a good f attachment trombone. Thanks

[@yyyy1885]

A Yamaha Xeno is a wonderful trombone.

[@jakegogolin5566]

a conn 8hh is also pretty nice

[@I2x3I]

set them free!!

[@jimdugal]

Thank you and good luck!

[@wtzhangwtzhang9439]

didn't you skip the pedal B natural below the staff?

[@jimdugal]

Tiger Zhang yes you need a bass Trombone with 2 trigger valves to play B natural below the staff

[@raulcarrillo4467]

Tiger Zhang you could play it if you pulled the tuning slide of the F attachment out to E, but it would still be somewhat sharp. The best way to play it would be with a bass trombone.

[@RealTimeFun]

You could do a false tone in 4th position, but it wouldn't sound very good.
