About Us
About Greenhoe
Greenhoe Trombones was founded in 2001 and began production in 2002 under the direction and design of Gary Greenhoe. Gary played an instrumental part in high-quality trombone design for most of his 41 years as a professional trombonist with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra. Gary’s patented Greenhoe valve system has been at the center of every Greenhoe Trombone since the beginning. Greenhoe Trombones represent a return to a classic sound with the highest quality available throughout the world.
With over 10 years of experience designing and crafting trombones for Schilke Music, Andrew and Julie Naumann purchased Greenhoe Trombones from Gary and Glenda Greenhoe in 2016. At this time, the Naumann’s retired the Schilke trombone to dedicate their full attention to carrying on the Greenhoe legacy.
