International Staff Band now playing Rath trombones
We're delighted to announce that the International Staff Band of the Salvation Army are now using Michael Rath trombones. ' Andrew Justice, Principal Trombone of the ISB said - " We are delighted with the end-result of several months of trials of various options for our new trombones. The ability to try different combinations of components is a massive advantage in matching up different players to create an ideal sectional sound. The level of service and support we have received from Rath has been second-to none."
