Whether it’s LES BENEDICT on his Kanstul 1606 Jazz Model Tenor Trombone or GEORGE ROBERTS on his Kanstul 1670 Bass Trombone the recording studios are alive with The Sound Of Kanstul. Both are legendary players in the LA studios and both love their KANSTUL TROMBONES.

The LA Jazz Scene magazine said of Les, “A very gifted trombonist who can play in many different styles.” Wheter it’s from Bob Florence to Don Ellis or Henry Mancini to Prince, the list of recording sessions that Les has recorded on reads like a who’s who. Conrad Herwig in his book, Fond Memories of Frank Rosolino, writes, “Les Benedict….has taught me most of what I know about playing the trombone.” To learn more about LES BENEDICT go to his website at www.les-benedict.com

MEET MR. ROBERTS. George Roberts “Mr. Bass Trombone” virtually single-handedly “wrote the book” on playing the commercial Bass Trombone, bringing it from it’s last, low trombone status to the forefront as a solo instrument. George has been a True Legend in the LA studio scene for over 50 years. From Frank to Sarah to Judy to Nat or the likes of Henry Mancini or Nelson Riddle you’ve heard the unmistakable sound of GEORGE ROBERTS “Mr. Bass Trombone”.

At the recent 2008 NAMM show in Anaheim I was speaking with George at the Kanstul Booth. He has known my father for over 50 years, since the F.E. OLDS days. He refers fondly of my father as The Master. Of course he’s speaking of my father’s ability to craft the finest of instruments. As we were discussing recent events in the Music Industry I said, “You know George, nothing resonates like a Kanstul.” He said, ” You’re right. That’s the difference. Your father really knows how to make a horn sing.”  Whether it’s a piccolo trumpet or tuba, nothing truly resonates like a Kanstul.

Here at Kanstul Music we offer our unique program of TRY BEFORE YOU BUY. It allows you the opportunity to play test a Kanstul to hear and feel for yourself the difference. I’m sure you will agree with George and all the other World Renowned brass players who have made Kanstul their Horn Of Choice.

To The Music,

Jack Kanstul
