Model Description

The THEIN Bass Trombone “BvD” has been continuously developed together with Ben van Dijk since the late 1980s until today.

The beautiful rich, full, warm bass trombone sound with overtones is unique. This results among others from the compact design of the valve part. The exposed bows make it easy to play in all registers. With the THEIN hand support, an exceptionally easy playing is achieved.
