Frequently asked questions

Good to know

What distinguishes the Buddenbohm Mira?

The Mira is a Bb/F tenor trombone with a one-piece hand-hammered brass bell in the special “Mount Vernon” shape (8.5" / 216 mm). It combines a warm, carrying orchestral sound with plenty of core – played by Youngnam Roh (Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra) and Andy Chen, among others.

What are the technical specifications of the Mira?

Bb/F pitch, .547" / 13.89 mm bore, one-piece hand-hammered brass bell 8.5" / 216 mm in Mount Vernon shape, Meinlschmidt open-flow valve, brass outer slide with square nickel silver slide crook, interchangeable leadpipe, clear lacquered.

What does the Buddenbohm Mira cost?

The base price is €6,100 (polished, incl. 19% VAT, as of April 2026).

What is an open-flow valve?

The Meinlschmidt open-flow valve guides the air column through the valve circuit with exceptionally low resistance. The sound stays open and homogeneous when switching to the F side and the response barely changes – a major advantage in everyday orchestral work.

Which repertoire is the Mira suited to?

Above all symphonic and opera orchestra playing, where a warm, round sound with a carrying core is required. We will gladly advise you in our showroom on which model suits your repertoire.
