I named my trombone trickie because it wishes it could be a triger trombone it is a selmer and really pretty but it can't play all the notes i need him to and it makes him sad. i got him a few years ago it was to upgrade my lttle beginer bundy trombone that was fine for middle school but for high school i got my trickie which sound so much better. now as i am going in to college i may need to invest in a trigger one but they are so expensive. I was also the only girl player my freshman year in marching band. It was wierd because my mom could always find me because i was the shortest as the guys were all six foot and above and i am only five foot five. it was really fun though. i wish they had a marching band at the college i am going to well this is long now so thats all for now

I don't remember what kind I have, but I've been playing for 4 years. I should probably get a new trombone because mine is so beat up. There's a big dent in it from when it was hit by a thrown water bottle at a cross-town rival basketball game.

i play a yamaha...it was brand new plastic still on it when i got it...i dont think it looks that way anymore...i will say that out of all the dents ive only put two...the rest came from some idiot trumpet who tried to take my mouthpiece when i wasnt looking and made my trombone roll down the stands...i was so sad crying ...also someone who decided to kick rocks at me put dents in my slide/spit valve area...so its been through its far share...

i have about a billion dents artound my tuning slide area, from me hitting myself and others in the head/instrument. especially the euphos, they kinda edge away whenever i look vaguely annoyed at anyone.

hello, my name is georgie, and my trombone is called arthur the non-magical trombone. he is VERY speshal.

he needs an upgrade though, so i will be sad when he leaves.

what should i name the new one?

Is alright. I play in Ohio, US and I've been alone for the passed 2 (of my three years in band) years. Next year will probably be different (high school) but don't worry! You'll find fellow T-bone players...

btw, his name is Tony X3

I dunno if I count but I'm currently in the process of learning trombone.
Which is a pretty big leap from Baritone T.C.

At my school ive found that there arnt many girls playing trombone, but there are afew. I havent thought to name my trombone because it doesnt quite have any uniqe features in which i could give it a name. I play a Blessing trigger trombone. Blessing is a pretty common brand as ive found but as of last year and the year before me and a friend were the only triggers. sad But it does mess with other bones in my section. The person beside me has played the wrong notes because insted of going to sixth i just go to first.
