Leather handgrip for an Eastman bass trombone

Post by maherbone »

Hi all. Struggling a bit here and haven't found any luck researching online.

I have an Eastman ETB-848 bass and I'm trying to find the proper size slide grips to get. I had ordered the Griego set, the one for Edwards/Shires and it's laughable how much it doesn't fit. $25 down the drain. I want to try leather specialities but not entirely sure which size to go. I referenced the Hickey's size chart but the ETB-848 isn't listed, and the model that works with Shires basses (034160) mentions Eastman, but mentions their tenor model even though they call it a bass. Before I go and order another set is there anyone on here who by chance uses an Eastman and has gotten the hand grips?

Feels naked playing without them ha.
