@retromania91

All F-attachment and bass trombones have extra tubing which is built into the bell section.

[alanraph]

They could.

I have a small mouth and its kinda hard to play. But everybody tells me to open up but im opening my mouth as much as i can. And when i play high notes like Bb etc it gets a nasty sound when i play. Plz help me!

@Caboose2320

I can't help you without seeing and hearing you play. Do you have a trombone teacher? He or she can help you much more than me.

[alanraph]

I use a Bach (King, Benge) 1 1/2 G mouthpiece on every trombone that I play ... includiong bass trumpet , euphonium and tuba..

I have trouble playing out, any tips?

[Basketball1999Fan]

I have trouble with going on the 7 Scale from B Flat to High B But i always have trouble on the High A and High B. Could anybody help me?

[bloodytears115]

Your good but the only reason you got those low notes was because of your F trigger trombone which that trigger lets yo go lower

[Tromboner1998]

@bassbonemexie Yeah my friend can play a c in 1st and has no triggers just lip down

[2015lumberjack]

I kid you not, I can almost get the bottom Bb on a Yamaha YSL 154 tenor 'bone.
