John Packer 'JP331' .525 F-Attachment Trombone | Lacquer | NEW

The John Packer JP331 Rath F-Attachment Trombone is a new medium-large bore Bb/F tenor trombone designed in collaboration with Michael Rath, one of the UK's leading trombone specialists. This lacquer model features a .525" bore, 8" high-grade brass bell, single rotary valve, 2 water keys, high-grade brass body, and a Michael Rath-designed leadpipe. The JP331 Rath line is built to offer professional-style response and design features in a more accessible step-up instrument.

This is a strong choice for advancing students, serious high school players, community band musicians, and trombonists ready to move beyond a standard student trombone. The .525" bore gives players more depth and flexibility without jumping all the way to a large-bore .547" setup, while the F-attachment adds low-range options and alternate positions. It is a great fit for players who want a fuller sound, improved projection, and a smooth transition into more advanced concert band, ensemble, and solo playing.

New John Packer instruments include a 2-year manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship from the original date of purchase.
