Guys players have their own way of playing look at Fred Wesley he puffs out his cheeks and slouches over.. So what he is still a beast this guy is a monster trombone player. He can do what he wants.
I love your playing! Could you give me some pointers? I've been playing trombone for about 8 years now. I started playing Jazz 2 years ago. I've been taking improvisation classes in order to improve my solo's but with all the information I am receiving I feel like my head is going to explode. Is there a more practical approach or should I just keep memorizing? I really love your style and tone, just wanted to know if you have any advice for me and I would love to buy a CD if you have one.
@koolerkam: It's a King 2B Silversonic, a very nice one to be exact. It's a Bb Tenor Trombone like a more usual Trombone, and playing high like this amazing player is all practice. Lip slurs and playing in the upper register helped me alot when I had to double on Lead and Bass. I'm a high schooler too ^^
@koolerkam Definitely not an alto trombone. It looks like a King 3B to me. Could be a 2B, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Those high notes can be achieved on any size tenor trombone, it just takes years of practice and study.
My home was broken into several months ago, and the thief took some of my horns. But I got them back after I saw them for sale on EBay and notified the police!
what song is this from your album?

One more thing, how have you managed to make your high register sound so fantastic?

Wow, great playing!
I've always wanted to be able to play jazz this well, but I'm more comfortable with classical stuff

Is that an alto trombone??
Those high notes seem so natural...is there anyway to achieve that in a regular trombone? what should I practice? (high schooler here...)
