The Greenhoe GC4 TIS (Tuning-in-Slide) Large Bore is a reintroduction of a century old approach to tenor trombone design.
Based on a classic American large bore tenor trombone configuration and utilizing the innovations developed by Gary Greenhoe and his team the GC4-TIS features a 2-piece rose or yellow brass bell, an open-wrap F-attachment with the renowned Greenhoe valve and Tuning-In-Slide (TIS), which eliminates bell tuning and allows the bell to maintain a continuously conical profile, thus giving a free and even feel to the sound.
