A Lätzsch, maybe?

Re: Jonathon Ramsay equipment
It really looks like some Bach parts... but perhaps not. Obviously has a small kranz on the bell much like some Laetzsch horns, but I've never seen one of theirs with a Hagmann. Slide looks like it doesn't have a Bach crook or ferrules, either.
Sure sounds great, though!

Maybe a Kromat?

Re: Jonathon Ramsay equipment
Kromat would also have been my guess. Great quality instruments, somehow Bach-oriented with some added German DNA. I am pretty sure they could build the "perfect Bach" if only they had any time left. On the other hand they could certainly also play a more German instrument. They have been very very popular now for many years. I know multiple people who bought one in the last years. Stefan Schulz played it for many years even while officially being Courtois artist.
I followed the ARD competition and also had heard some recordings before. Really great trombonist who will certainly leave a good footprint in Berlin. Somehow it was obvious that he or Kris Garfitt would win the ARD competition. Kris Garfitt may have a bit more soloistic character while Jonathon Ramsay for me showed more orchestral approach and sound. Both 10 times better than what I could ever have reached
@Tim, another great trombonist from Australia!

Re: Jonathon Ramsay equipment
On second thought, it definitely looks like a Kromat. Was he using a Bach before? For instance:

Re: Jonathon Ramsay equipment
That looks like the same slide as the one in the OP, perhaps. I wonder if he's still using some of the same parts on the Kromat.el2002 wrote: Thu Dec 21, 2023 2:37 pm On second thought, it definitely looks like a Kromat. Was he using a Bach before? For instance:

Re: Jonathon Ramsay equipment
Any time I hear the Sulek piano concerto, I'm not really too bothered by what the trombone accompaniment is playing on.
That Steinway D sounds great.
(Jokes aside, this trombonist sounds really amazing. What a dark sound)
