Re: Schagerl Aurora Bass Trombone
Fascinating design. Is this a new model? I don't quite understand "conical" slide – perhaps dual bore (14.3/14.7mm = 0.563/0.579")? Where is the 15.2mm (0.598") bore? Very interesting attachment wraps, which require tuning-in-slide. And a custom-built case. Not inexpensive (£5,977 = $7,800)

Re: Schagerl Aurora Bass Trombone
I've just had a quick look on the Schagerl site and the Bb/F tenors have the same trigger design. There's YouTube clips available too.
Yes it's expensive but the Courtois New Yorker is more as is the Haag (over $9000 on the BrassArk site).
Prices only ever go one way don't they....

Schagerls with this wrap design have been around for a long time. I played an Aurora bass at ETW (back when it was still called ETW) and it played very well as all Schagerls do.

Where is the 15.2mm bore located? Apparently not the (dual-bore?) slide.
