Get creative with the F attachment





The Jupiter JTB1100F comes equipped with an F attachment with a traditional wrap design. The extra tubing nestled within the bell section changes the pitch of your trombone from Bb to F. This allows you to access an extended range of low notes that would be nearly impossible with a standard tenor trombone. Another great benefit of having an F attachment is the introduction of alternate position options. Plus, the attachment is operated via a rock-solid mechanical linkage for fast and reliable use throughout the life of the instrument.





Everything you need to take the next step





Outgrowing a starter instrument is a fantastic feeling! Now, the next step is to choose your “step-up” horn. The Jupiter 1100F trombone offers the features to support you as your skills advance. This trombone has a 0.525-inch bore for a well-rounded tone and plenty of breath support; it comes with an 8.1-inch yellow brass bell for authoritative projection. There’s also an extra-durable nickel silver outer slide that adds a subtle brilliance to the tone.





Jupiter: guaranteed through graduation





A staple in classrooms everywhere, Jupiter band instruments are beloved by music teachers for good reason. Since 1980, the company has built high-quality band instruments for students of every development level. Innovations such as the Waveline flute headjoint and the patented Ergonomic trombone are just two examples of the company’s player-centered design philosophy. Each Jupiter instrument is inspected for quality throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring that it can endure bumps and bruises as easily as it can navigate technical passages. Sweetwater believes that every student should have access to the rich musical culture that unites us all. And with Jupiter’s player-first focus, anyone is welcome to embark upon an exciting and fulfilling musical journey through high school graduation and beyond.
