Number one reason to buy a Tromba: It's nearly indestructible and you can take it anywhere without fear of damage. And it's cheap enough that if you do managed to destroy it it's no great loss. Number one reason to not buy one: It's never going to sound like a brass instrument.
Thanks for showing me the F isn't right in 1st position. The allora does have a connector nut, But its got all the other problems. Not for a student. Okay for an older player for a different sound. Just like I would not want to play with a mute in all of the time this is not for every occasion.
Excellent review, thank you. Does anyone know if Tromba has addressed any of the issues discussed in this video to improve the instrument? In general, from what I’ve seen Tromba seems to lead the lack in terms of plastic instruments. Hopefully they’ve modified the instrument in the years since this video was made.
yes it has problems, and its not good for a professional or even just experineced player, but it isnt made for that, its made to teach kids, id rather give a kid a metal trombone if they had never played trombone. as a first instrument it is ok but reviewing it from a proffesional point of view seems unreasonable
So sad watching this after just hearing about his passing. A good friend. I walked along the path with him for quite a while. Arriverderci Aldo, amico mio.
hahah. i agree with all of your points. experienced like all of your issues but i actually enjoy mine albeit from jiggs. The black water went away for me over time. For the leaky water key, i went to the hardware store and bought adhesive gel and cork pads. Then, I patched it myself. Whenever the slide becomes gunky, I wipe the slides with a paper towel and clean the interior tubes. I think the carbon fiber residue builds up and slows the slide. I don't really mind the corrosion on my tubes. For the connector issue, all you do is just throw the plastic trombone somewhere like a football - it's plastic haha. Unfortunately for the inconsistent tone and intonation, I found that I had to commit to the plastic trombone and not play my brass horns. Then, I got used to the plastic horn and those issues went away (not a solution anyone can make though, but playing a pbone is not an issue for me!)
