Bach Bell Edwards Trombone & Silmilar Trombone Bell

[kavin]

I want to put a Bach trombone bell on my Edwards T-350e, does it sound good?

I heard that Mouthpiecexpress is selling trombone bells, is it delivered safely?

And if you don't recommend installing bachtrombone bells, which number in the edwards trombone bell model is similar to the tone of the bachtrombone bell?

Are you a real person or a scammer? Tell me more about your trombone collection and experience.

The Korean subject probably threw some of us off. Note that I translated it to English using Google Translate. We are an international Forum, but our official language is English.

Hey, Kavin!

You could buy a Bach 42 or 47 bell to mount on your Edwards. However, this is pretty expensive and would take some more parts that would not come with the bell, as well as work by a trombone technician.

There are many Edwards T-350 bells out there that will fit with no work- you may be able to find one used.

Also, your current bell may play well in the high register. You've been playing for two years, which is a short time to have a good high register. Practice is always cheapest!

I hope this helps!

Thank you for your kindness answer. Because of my ability, I keep blaming my mouthpiece and my instrument.
According to your advice, try to focus on improving skills rather than changing your bell.
Thank you once again.

We get scams a lot here, so we're protective. You are very welcome here. Most of the post is not in Korean. Only the title is. Feel free to ask questions and learn, and offer advice to others.

And I agree with BurgerBob. Work on your playing - don't worry too much about your trombone. It's probably okay.

ah... I'm sorry I have to check how it's printed and upload it. Based on your and BurgerBob's advice, I will try to high register not blaming my edwards t-350e. Thank you.

First, I agree that the range is probably not due to the bell shape and construction.

Second, on a bass, I mounted a Bach 50 bell to an Edwards. It really is a different animal to get a one-piece flare rather than a two piece. Is it that much different? No. Going there is really going into mostly useless detail, but I liked it specifically for how I was using that instrument in upper level university and semi-professional orchestral use. Despite my best efforts prior to that, an Edwards just isn't going to be a Bach. Even still it wasn't.... but it could fool folks on a lot of days.

Cheers,
Andy

Thanks , Andy.
Your advice is very helful.
Because I am not good at english. What i wrote 'Bach is good at hogh register.' was actually trying to express that "Bach's high register is more beautiful than edwards high register tone." .
But my english ability is not good, so i mistake to express about that. sorry.
And it is impressive that bach 50 bell on edwards.
I will make changable 42 bach bell someday. for beautiful tone.
Thanks.
