Rath Trombone Hand Support

Reduce tension and strain with the Michael Rath Trombone Hand Support. Designed to alleviate physical stress in the hand, arm, and shoulder, this simple yet effective accessory attaches to the bell stay and supports the instrument's weight, allowing you to play free from tension for extended periods. Perfect for all trombone types—from Bb/F tenor to bass and contrabass—the hand support minimizes embouchure pressure while improving musical performance. Whether you're marching, performing long sets, or managing conditions like arthritis, this pad fits comfortably across the back of your left hand and lets you remove your fingers from the slide stay. The kit is easy to install and adjust on most trombone models. Simply attach to the main bell stay and customize the fit to your needs. Handle with care during setup to avoid over-tightening screws.
