Yamaha YBL-835 Xeno Professional Bass Trombone - Gold Brass Bell - Clear Lacquer

Powerful and Refined – The Yamaha YBL-835G Xeno Professional Bass Trombone – Gold Brass Bell - Clear Lacquer

The YBL-835G has evolved to deliver the power and performance that modern music demands. It offers an open playing feel and produces a rich, authoritative tone that responds ideally to player control. As the first Yamaha custom bass trombone to feature a detachable hand rest, it provides significantly improved operation for enhanced comfort in any performance setting. Designed for solo, orchestral, and ensemble use, it delivers world-class tone and playability.

• Open playing feel with rich, responsive tone
• Detachable hand rest for improved comfort
• New slide receiver for increased volume and projection
• Refined rotary valve and lever action for smooth playability
• Gold brass main tuning slide for broader tone

Slide and Receiver Design

The newly designed slide receiver enhances projection, adds power to the core sound, and improves playing response. A modified mouthpiece receiver allows the mouthpiece to resonate more freely, providing greater flexibility and easier control.

Valve and Lever Enhancements

The rotary valve port shape has been refined to allow more airflow, producing a wider, more powerful sound. Lever action features a shorter stroke for smoother operation, a double torsion spring for consistency, and double ball bearings to reduce maintenance. The first lever cover has been reshaped for comfort, and the second lever finger plate angle is adjustable to fit the player’s hand precisely.

Detachable Hand Rest

The first detachable and adjustable hand rest on a Yamaha custom bass trombone reduces strain on the player’s hand and fingers. It provides a steadier hold, allowing the player to focus on musical performance. The rest can be removed entirely with the included hex wrench.

Tuning and Tone

Both the YBL-835G and its yellow brass counterpart feature a gold brass main tuning slide for added depth and richness in tone. The optional detachable bell design in other models of the series allows for more compact storage and can add projection to the sound.
