Trombone Cleaning Rod (TCR 3000)Trombone Cleaning Rod (TCR 3000)

Is your trombone slide dirty? Are you afraid to clean it with your cheap, flimsy, impossible-to-carry cleaning rod? We know the answers to these questions, which is why we created the TCR 3000. Made of stainless inserts and 6061 aluminum, this cleaning rod comes in a convenient carrying case and will never warp, bend, or break like the thing we've all had to settle on for years. Simply wrap the rod in cheesecloth and your slide will thank you for taking such good care of it.

The NY blank weighs slightly more than modern day Bach mouthpieces (Elkhart blanks). Its weight is distributed evenly around the bottom of the cup. This results in an even core of sound with overlapping overtones, creating a tone quality that is thicker than conventional mouthpieces. The NY also provides the midrange overtones that are often lost with other mouthpieces.

The Deco blank is heavier in mass than the NY blank. The added weight is great for large bass trombone mouthpieces that may have thinner walls due to larger inner cup diameters. It is very free blowing and can provide a bigger, darker sound than mouthpieces with less weight. The Deco also provides stability, which can help define partials on those trombones where extra focus is needed.
