There is a great number of professional musicians who are deeply impressed by the sound and the appearance of the Schmelzer Trombones, a fact that has been proved by numerous public References .
The musicians particularly emphasize the instruments' smooth and warm timbre, their full sound, and the immensely improved playing quality. Materials of finest quality are used in the production of these trombones, which meet the needs of today's discriminating musician.

However, to obtain such high quality results, it has been necessary, over many years, to gain experiences in caftmanship and design while working with these materials; especially as today's professional musician demands a high quality in materials, sound quality and playing technique.

 
                                

     
To this day 5 models of the Schmelzer Trombones have been created.

"Bertil Strandberg"
(Model 2 - Gold)





The different tone color is produced by the form of the bells, partly by the material, the differences in the wall thicknesses, as well as by the drilling and form of the mouthpiece. It is this knowledge which creates the character of a mature and high-quality wind instrument.
For about 15 years we have produced our own line of trombones. It's a line of unique and handmade specimens, which are played by many internationally renowned musicians.
