I missed the part where he said why he plays Edwards trombones.

"I began playing Edwards Instruments trombones in 1993 following their visit to what is now called the American Trombone Workshop... ...They were kind enough to lend the National Symphony Orchestra trombone section their entire stock from the show, so that gave us the opportunity to try all the bells, all the slides, all the combinations. I ended up buying my first bass trombone from them." "So in total I have 4 Edwards trombones, 3 basses and one tenor. I spent the better part of a day in Elkhorn Wis. at their shop selecting my daily driver trombone, the independent setup. I tried many different configurations of bells, slides, tuning slides, leadpipes. All the material I selected is stock material that anyone can buy... and that's what I love about the modular concept of their instruments, that you can select from a myriad of things and come around to the sound and style that is going to express what you want to say with the trombone." The entire point of the video is to show why and how he has chosen and built out each of his Edwards instruments to meet specific needs stylistically and ergonomically, which is only possible because of the modular concept and consistent quality.

@@VirtuosityMusicalInstruments yes I see now that customization and hands-on interaction with the instruments is invaluable to the professional. Thanks for taking care to reply to my comment!

What mouthpiece do you use for Tenor? I think I missed that. Looks like another Deco but not the 0.5.

If I remember correctly from the last time I spoke to him about it, he uses their 3 rim for the Deco blank

We'll send a message to Matt to confirm, but a 3 rim sounds about right!

take my opinion with a grain of salt, but using the 2nd valve is better than 1st because imo more slide tubing is better than vice versa. I use the 2nd valve about 5050 with my first. I use it for Db, C, Gb, F and sometimes E and B. For first valve, i use it for E, Eb, D, B, and sometimes C, Bb and Db. I would argue that most professional players use 1st and 2nd equally.

I second this. Been playing bass for years, and my lesson teacher taught me the versatility and uses that both valves offer. I use lots of alt positions, and it’s efficient. I use the 2nd valve at LEAST 50/50.
