Rath Trombones
For over twenty years, the name of Michael Rath has been synonymous with craftsmanship of the highest possible standards. With instruments currently being exported across the world, from Alaska to Australia, and played in a vast diversity of ensembles, trombones carrying the distinctive “R” symbol have proven themselves to be without equal. All of the trombones, with the exception of the Hagmann valves used on the instruments, are manufactured by hand in the Rath workshop.
