| Inner slide |
The chrome-plated nickel-silver drawn inner slide is very durable and has a quick, sensitive response. In addition, it is a one-piece drawn slide. |
| Outer slide |
The one-piece, drawn, brass outer slide maintains an accurate diameter throughout its length, and this type of construction ensures airtightness, smooth action, and exceptional durability. The outer slide is fit with extremely close tolerances making the horn respond quickly and effortlessly. |
| Inner slide stockings |
Specially designed, one-piece inner slide stockings guarantee airtight slide construction and offer smoother slide action and better alignment, even in the extended 6th and 7th positions. |
| Tubular braces |
Long-lasting nickel-silver tubular braces contribute to the stability of the slide and enhance smooth slide action. |
| One-piece bell |
A one-piece bell has an axial (lengthwise) seam, making it a continuous extension of the instrument's material. This results in pure, uniform resonance and superior tone. A hammered yellow brass bell produces a pure and perfectly-balanced tone with quick response and extra presence due to advanced manufacturing techniques. |
| Hand-lapped tuning slides |
Hand-lapping slides ensures an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the slide parts. Such a perfect fit helps to achieve smooth air flow and smooth action and improve the response and intonation of the instrument. |
| Balancer |
The balancer found on the YSL-697 perfectly
proportions the instrument's weight. |
| Pressure formed tubing |
Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance. |
| Laser-fused pluzuma welded bell |
A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell which allows continuous even vibrations. |
| Slide lock |
The unique slide lock design on all Yamaha trombones keeps the slide locked in place and keeps it from accidentally falling. |
| Bracing |
The large, easy-to-hold nickel silver bracing guards against possible slide damage if the instrument is dropped and also lessens fatigue while playing. |
| Mouthpipe |
Yamaha trombones have mouthpipes featuring special acoustic designs allowing for precise intonation and greater blowing control. |
| Tone |
The YSL-697 has a compact, well-centered tone and quick response suitable for all types of trombone performance. |
