Made in the 1910s.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e [Condition]\u003cbr\u003eNo noticeable scratches or dents in its current state, but scattered traces of past dent repairs ( \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e). A small disc is inserted where the rotary cap's recess interferes with the rotary shaft. (Rotary movement itself is unaffected.) The inner slide has been newly chrome-plated and is playable. However, please note it does not have the light action of modern trombones.(One side of the outer slide's crossbar is not fixed in place.)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e [Features]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eRobert Schopper, born in 1859 in Ardorf, Saxony. \u003cbr\u003eHe trained under Penzl, Zecche, Hilsbrunner, and F.A. Heckler, establishing his own workshop in Leipzig in 1888. He later received the title of Court Supplier and was one of the highly regarded master craftsmen of his time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThis instrument is a tenor bass trombone crafted by Schopper during his peak creative period in the 1910s. \u003cbr\u003eThe crowned hallmark and design retaining traces of handcrafted workmanship indicate it was a high-end, in-house production from that era.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe workshop was destroyed during the air raids of World War II. Very few examples survive today. The fact that this trombone retains its original form from that era makes it exceptionally valuable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-end=\"124\" data-start=\"51\"\u003e This instrument has endured over a century. Consequently, the weight and operation of its slides differ from modern designs; it is not an instrument prioritizing lightness. However, when tried by multiple professional players in the past, it received high praise for the quality of its resonance and the depth of its tone. While its character differs from modern instruments in terms of playability, it is an instrument that will truly respond to players who understand and engage with its unique characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-end=\"341\" data-start=\"243\"\u003e And one more thing. This instrument also holds documentary value, telling the story of the mature period of German wind instrument making in the early 20th century. Design philosophy, machining techniques, material selection, engraving style—it embodies both practicality and historical significance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-end=\"397\" data-start=\"361\"\u003e We wish to quietly pass this instrument on to someone who resonates with this value.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e※Please note that returns or exchanges for this item are not accepted except for defective products.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"R.Schopper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50681709134061,"sku":"C107681","price":423500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/1321\/3933\/files\/tenorbassposaune-8998092.jpg?v=1789461133","url":"https:\/\/tcgakki.com\/en\/products\/tain-tenor-trombone-medium-slim-bore-tenor-trombone-3","provider":"TC楽器 - TCGAKKI","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
