make?

Question:

What is a good bass trombone model/make?

I'm looking for one with two indepent triggers, open wrap, and possibly interchangable bells and lead pipes? I want a deep, dark sound for symphonic band and a bright sound for stage band. I tried an older getzen model (5 years-old?) at one point, and the sound was a lot darker than I wanted. It could be just the old models though. I don't want to lose too much in the high range, but I want the low notes to really pop.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I would look into Holton, Bach and keep trying the Getzen. Not every model of a particular brand is going to have the same characteristics. There will even be differences between different horns of the same model. The best thing you can do is play every horn you can get your hands on until you find the one that is perfect, then buy it.
