XO 1242RL Professional Bass Trombone with Rose Brass Bell - Clear Lacquer
Bass Trombone with Double Dependent Rotor Valve System, 9.5" Rose Brass Bell, 0.561" Bore, Yellow Brass Outer Slide, Nickel Silver Crook, and Nickel Silver Inner Slide - Clear Lacquer
Flexibility for Any Ensemble
The 1242RL takes design inspiration from XO’s 1240RL bass trombone, with the substitution of dual independent, offset rotors. This professional trombone comes with features that combine old-school sound with today's precision fit and finish. XO equipped with 1242RL with both F and Gb attachments and comes with dual independent rotors, which give you a fully chromatic range of low tones. Each rotor has gold-plated channels for easy maintenance for as long as you own the horn. You’ll love the warm response of the 9.5-inch rose brass bell and the centered sound of the 0.561-inch symphonic bore. What’s more, this trombone includes three interchangeable leadpipes that allow the player to customize the feel and response of the horn. If you’re looking for a horn that can hold its own in any ensemble, Sweetwater Sales Engineers highly recommend the XO 1242RL bass trombone.
Expressive rose brass bell
The XO 1242RL ships with a responsive rose brass bell. Measuring in at expansive 9.5 inches, this bell delivers a warm and expressive sound through all registers. Thanks to its higher copper content, rose brass produces a rich tonal quality that improves upon the classic sound of yellow brass. You’ll appreciate the authoritative projection for louder dynamics and the nuanced response for quieter articulations. Courtesy of its rose brass bell, the XO 1242RL will provide the right tone for any occasion.
Double dependent valve system with offset rotors
A bass trombone’s attachments are integral to the horn’s sound. XO knows this, which is why they pulled out all the stops to produce responsive attachments to enhance your low end. This professional bass trombone comes equipped with a double dependent rotor valve system, which offers rich sound with the added benefit of less resistance. What’s more, XO includes gold-plated rotary channels to ensure upkeep is a breeze.
Customize your playing experience with interchangeable leadpipes
XO is committed to delivering the best possible playing experience with each of their instruments. A trombone should feel like a perfectly natural extension of yourself, and breath resistance plays a major role in achieving that “perfect” feeling. The 1242RL comes with three interchangeable leadpipes, so you can customize the horn to fit your unique tonal needs. In addition, XO included a removable gold-plated counterweight to further customize the feel of your 1242RL trombone.
