Schmelzer Model 5 GR Bass Trombone with Open Flow Rotor

$3,895.00

Item Details

This Model 5 GR custom single valve bass trombone is made by Manfred Schmelzer in M-Gladbach, Germany. Manfred has passed away in January 2026 so this is the last one. This trombone is made to be light and nimble in the style of George Roberts, the Hollywood studio great. This F almost pulls to E but not really, but by bending the pitch you can make it work. The low B false tone is spectacular. Lightweight bell horns will do that.

Includes Eastman case which is ordinary.
