The Warwick Music Group is celebrating the news that their revolutionary plastic trombone – the pBone, has just notched up an incredible 100,000 worldwide sales.

Iconic

Launched in 2010, the instrument has become an iconic market leader with sales registered all around the musical globe.

The news also comes ahead of the much anticipated launch of the pTrumpet, which is due to hit primary markets this Summer, distributed through the USA by Conn-Selmer and Vincent Bach in the UK and Europe.

Not disappointed

A spokesperson exclusively told 4BR: "Customers, musicians and fans of the pBone have been getting feverishly excited to see what the WMG team will be unleashing next on the brass world. They will not be disappointed."

4BR understands that the new model will feature patented polymer lead pipe technology which Warwick Music Group believe will give the pTrumpet an unbeatable and unrivalled sound quality and playability.
