A Small But Mighty Trombone
Like the original pBone, the pBone Mini Trombone is designed to assimilate the sound of an authentic brass trombone. With this revolutionary instrument, you’ll benefit from the affordability and durability of the original pBone — all on a smaller scale. The pBone Mini is shorter than a normal trombone, weighing in at about two pounds, and is pitched in Eb, making it easier to play. In addition to providing an authentic trombone sound for just a fraction of the price, the pBone Mini's revolutionary ABS plastic body makes it practically indestructible, not to mention extremely kid-friendly. Make no mistake, however: this fun-colored trombone is perfect for professionals, beginners, and even those who just want to have some musical fun.

The beginner trombone, reimagined
The pBone Mini is a legitimate musical instrument designed to emulate the sound of an authentic brass trombone. While the pBone mini is pitched in Eb, it’s still plenty capable of playing lower partials. And with a 0.485/.500-inch dual bore and expertly engineered tubing, its sound rivals the real deal. The pBone Mini also comes with a beginner-friendly pBuzz small shank mouthpiece, although players can choose to use any metal trombone mouthpiece.
Rugged design resists wear and tear
The pBone Mini is unlike any wind instrument on the market. It's made of ABS plastic, a revolutionary plastic material that weighs in at just 1.8 pounds. This unique horn's sturdy slide doesn’t dent, whereas traditional trombone slides can be rendered totally inoperative after one small ding. What’s more, it only gets better with time — the pBone Mini’s composite slide moves more smoothly with each use and locks for safe storage in between practice sessions.
Get to know pInstruments
Thanks to pInstruments, playing a brass instrument is more accessible than ever. Every pInstrument is remarkably affordable, long lasting, and made from incredibly high-performing ABS plastic, a hard-wearing plastic that effectively mimics the sound of traditional brass instruments. They offer three instruments for true beginners — pBugle, pBone Mini, and pBuzz — as well as more advanced horns like the pCornet, the pTrumpet, and the pBone. Because of their practicality, pInstruments have grown increasingly popular among music educators and young musicians. Still, musicians at Sweetwater find that they are equally appropriate and fun to play for professionals, too.
