Description
The YTR-738 is unique, and so much fun to really fill up a room with it’s sound even at soft dynamics, or just bury everyone on a shout chorus. The 5 inch bell has a flare that eats mutes, but can give off such a dark smokey vibe.
Top that off with the Bronze single radius, no brace tuning slide. It gets a BEAUTIFUL sound! Much like Til Broner.
The YTR-738 was patterned off of the Schilke X3 and was discontinued in 1976. It is a large bore (.463) with a 5″ yellow brass 2 piece bell. It is slightly lighter than most of the Yamaha line weighing in at 980g. 1st slide thumbs saddle and a fixed 3rd slide ring. It comes with the original case and extra M/K tuning slide. No Mouthpiece
