Jupiter JTB700VQ Valve Trombone Overview
The Jupiter JTB700VQ is a Bb valve trombone designed to provide the trombone register with the familiar three-piston fingering used by trumpet, baritone, and euphonium players. Its practical valve-trombone format makes it a useful choice for school ensembles, marching applications, jazz settings, and brass doublers who prefer piston valves to a conventional handslide.

Common Questions About the Jupiter JTB700VQ
How does a valve trombone differ from a slide trombone?
A valve trombone changes pitch with three piston valves rather than seven handslide positions. It retains the Bb trombone register while using a fingering system familiar to trumpet, baritone, and euphonium players.
What musical settings suit the JTB700VQ?
The JTB700VQ is well suited to school ensembles, marching groups, jazz ensembles, commercial playing, and doubling situations that call for trombone range with piston-valve technique.
What does the .482-inch bore contribute?
The .482-inch bore gives the JTB700VQ a relatively compact valve-trombone design intended to provide an immediate response without the air demands associated with many large-bore orchestral trombones.
