Neotech5131001 Trombone Grip Set, black

Quick and easy to fit, one strap can be used on multiple instruments, widely adjustable for different hands/trombones. Pops off if it doesn't fit your case. Adds very little weight to the instrument but can support one of the heaviest (my VB Strad 50BL double K valve). And a fraction of the cost of certain brands I could mention.

I originally bought the Rath hand brace for my R10... it looks great, but because of the way it attaches to the trombone, it was difficult to use without being frightened of over-tightening, and it kept coming loose.This one is much easier and better, more comfortable and you can un-attach (and re-attach) the handle, when not using, so easier to fit in a case. Also enables you to attach the same grip to multiple trombones which is handy (providing your trombones either have slightly different slides or you buy more attachments). It's also WAY cheaper (I wish I bought this one first).

used for a JPRath 333 Bass - getting wrist/arm pain holding it without. There's lots of adjustment possibility with this little thing, its not too expensive and well worth having.I customised in 2 ways:1. covering the palm rest with thin (1mm - cut from a old child's summer wetsuit) neoprene wrapped round a couple of times then superglued to itself. softer and more comfortable than the hard plastic of the palm rest by itself. had to cut holes in the extra neoprene for the screws holding the unit together.2. adding a non-stretchy 10mm wide velcro strip over the full length of the outside of the stretchy neoprene on the back-of-hand rest. I found that without this it would stretch a little too much during playing and lead to the instrument shifting in position. With the extra velcro setup to stop it stretching more than about 5-10mm, its just right.I definately recommend this device for anyone with a heavy trombone or struggling with wrist/arm pain.

Have this fitted to my Coppergate bass trombone (a copy of the King 7b). Really makes it easier to hold for longer and helps keep my hand in a better position for both triggers. Bonus was that the system comes with three trombone fittings (for different styles of trombone) and you just move the hand holder from trombone to trombone. One of the spare fittings works perfectly on my Robertson single pot trombone so I can use the holder on that too. Result!

I bought this to help support my Rath R9 bass trombone. It's a good product, and works for most situations, but if you plan on using it with a Rath trombone, it turns out that it's not suitable. The issue is the thumb screw system Rath use for locking the bell and slide sections together. The Neotech grip either can't clipped on because the thumb screw is in the way, or if you try to clip the grip on and then tighten the thumb screw, you will find you won't be able to.This is not a moan at Neotech, who agreed with my assessment and promised to take it away and see if they can come up with a solution, or indeed if Rath. Neither are at fault, but I wanted to warn potential buyers who own Rath trombones, that you may need to look elsewhere.I've fitted it to my Conn 8H instead, but I didn't really need it for that!

I love this product, will be significant help playing the heavy Holton bass trombone. Many thanks, very happy

This product has been brilliant. I'd been struggling with finding a comfy grip position on my new trombone (having recently upgraded from my v lightweight Bb to a more chunky one with F attachment) as after playing for more than an hour or so my middle finger and wrist started to get pretty achy. Took a punt on this grip after reading various forums - it has not disappointed. Pretty easy to attach if you read the instructions, simple to adjust to find the perfect setup and best of all - goodbye to hand pain! Yippee!

Great Product! Holds the way of the instrument very efficiently, very comfortable.
