Who the STBQ36GR Bass Trombone Is For

The S.E. Shires STBQ36GR is a professional dual-rotor bass trombone built for players who require a rich, expansive low register along with strong projection and consistent response throughout the instrument’s range. Its hand-hammered gold brass bell with a QII taper produces a focused, lyrical core while maintaining depth and presence, and the .562 bore Q62 handslide contributes a broad, colorful sound with clarity and control.

Designed for versatility, this model is well suited to orchestral performance, wind ensemble, brass band, commercial settings, and pit work. The independent F and Gb rotary valves preserve tonal focus through the valve register while offering flexible slide and fingering options, and the nickel-silver crook enhances articulation with added brilliance. A set of three interchangeable leadpipes is included, allowing players to adjust response and feel to suit different repertoire and acoustic environments.

Common Questions About The S.E. Shires STBQ36GR

What makes the STBQ36GR different from a dependent-valve bass trombone?

The STBQ36GR uses independent F and Gb rotary valves, which allows either valve to be used alone or together. This gives more flexibility in valve combinations and slide positions compared with dependent systems, and it helps players manage intonation and facility in technical passages.

Is the S.E. Shires STBQ36GR suitable for professional orchestral playing?

Yes. The .562 bore, 9 1/2-inch gold brass QGB bell, and independent rotary valves are professional-application specifications intended to provide projection, clarity, and a full low register required for orchestral and large-ensemble bass trombone parts.

What is included with the STBQ36GR?

It includes the S.E. Shires Q Series bass trombone case, a mouthpiece, and a care kit, plus three interchangeable yellow brass leadpipes.

Great quality pillows. Very difficult wrapping.
Color: White, Size: King (Pack of 2)
The Pillows are the real deal. Very fluffy but with good support. I was surprised by the weight of the box they came in, pretty heavy so you know there’s good quality pillows inside. The one negative is that the pillows are packed in very very tight plastic because they come compressed. But the thing is, it’s really a chore to open them. You have to be careful not to cut through the plastic to the material, but the plastic is put on so incredibly tight that it’s even hard to get your finger underneath. But I found a way to open them. Near the top, insert A very flat metal ruler as far in as you could get it. Then cut through the plastic that’s above the metal ruler. That prevents a sharp tool from damaging the pillows. As you get through the plastic above the ruler, keep pushing the ruler further down into the package. Believe me, this simplifies what could be a very difficult unpacking. I am very surprised that the company that makes them does not insert the type of opener that you find on boxes you receive in the mail or even packages that you get from the grocery store where you just pull a tab and that opens the package. These are really good pillows, but you must be very careful about using a sharp object when opening the box and when trying to cut through the plastic. I am a strong man and have the tools needed, a very flat metal ruler, and a box cutter, knife, or razor. Good luck. !!

These hold up very well
Color: White, Size: Standard (Pack of 2)
I have NO luck with pillows. I’ve been in stores & tried them. They seemed ok there. At home, nope. I’ve been getting headaches & neck aches from lousy pillows. I’ll change one, a few nights relief. It doesn’t help that I’m prone to headaches. After reading about different pillows, I settled on these. The reviews were better than so many different ones I was looking at. Including high priced & brand names. I bought the standard size. When I saw, “Customers Usually Keep This”, I kept my fingers crossed. When I received them, I took one out of the package & put my head on it & thought, oh no! This is too hard! I tried it again. Ok….. I slept on it & haven’t had any pains since. It’s soft but firm enough to keep my head from sinking & messing up my neck. I don’t move. No more flipping my pillow over. My head doesn’t go below my neck anymore! This has been 2 months now, but it hasn’t changed at all. I wake up happy, not complaining. No more pains or headaches. This saved me from losing days with a heating pad or an ice pack. The price was excellent for 2 pillows. I can’t believe a blind buy was the answer! These are incredible. Finally, something worked for me.

Awesome Pillows!
Color: White, Size: King (Pack of 2)
These pillows are super soft! I love them. I bought them when I caught a bad cold and needed to prop myself up. Worked so great! Definitely give these pillows a try. They're very reasonably priced too.

Comfortable pillows
Color: White, Size: Standard (Pack of 2)
These pillows are great. Not too soft or to hard. They need to be in the dryer for about 15 minutes to fluff up. Perfect buy!

Don’t judge by the size
Color: White, Size: Standard (Pack of 2)
I don’t write reviews here typically but I’ve been on the pillow hunt for years with no luck. Mine are always lumpy and misshapen or too soft or too firm. Don’t judge this pillow by how it looks though because I saw it and thought for sure I wasted money. They are small and not fluffy at all. But OMG I laid down on it and it’s the most comfortable pillow I’ve had in years. Memory foam didn’t work for me but this simple little pillow just allowed me some great sleep. Very happy with this purchase. It’s a simple, no frills pillow that’s perfect for this side sleeper that doesn’t like a too soft pillow.
