Technical description. • Pipe 13.89 mm – 0.547” • One-piece hand-hammered Ø 216mm (8 5/8") brass pavilion • Pink brass outer rods • Lacquered finish • Tuning. Bb/F The King 4B trombone has a classic large bell diameter symphonic trombone design. Due to this 13.89 bell diameter, it has a very open feel when playing and is best suited for the lower parts of a jazz band as well as symphonic performance. It has a transposer to widen the range of the instrument and help with those difficult “extended arm” passages. This is a very versatile model of trombone. The brass bell comes standard on this model to offer the player quick response and a warmer sound. King 4B Trombone Henderson White, founder of the HN White Company, started his business as the owner of a small repair shop in Cleveland, Ohio. With the help of Mr. Thomas King, a local trombonist, White developed his first trombone in 1894. This was seen in the market as a "revelation" to the music world thanks to its radically different bell and leadpipe designs, with shafts softer and lighter than any other trombone of the time. In 1909, the HN White Company developed an "Acoustical Research Department", with the goal of developing higher quality instruments. The company built saxophones and even horns. Upon White's death in 1940, control was assumed by Edna White, the first female executive in a male-dominated industry. Under her leadership the company flourished. Although instrument production stopped during World War II, Edna was able to secure two major government contracts making radar units and proximity fuzes that kept the factories running.
