I mean who plays this kind of music.
shorty means girl! i dont know why though!
The trombone is shaped like that so it can produce a fuller and louder sound. :)
Trombone are different for everyone so I recommend you go to a band shop and just try out their trombone and see what brand you like best.
Marching Trombone> It looks like a large trumpet. It allows for easier marching , not having to use the slide.

Very heavy and bulky
A trombone is one of the easiest recognized instruments since there are very few other instruments that are similar (i.e. clarinet and oboe). A trombone is generally made up of two pieces joined together where the main hand holds the instrument. The lower piece looks like and skinny but long stretched "U" while the upper piece is a similar shape but flares out into the "bell" of the horn. A trombone is normally made of brass or a like metal and can come in a variety of colors dependent upon the manufacture. An example is that Yamaha makes a tri-colored trombone... very elegant looking. When fully assembled, the trombone is one continuous piece of metal similarly shaped as a widely stretched "S" beginning at the mouth piece and continues to the Bell. The standard trombone, unlike nearly all other instruments, does not have any valves, keys, or strings. The sound and notes are produced by elongating the slide into one of seven positions. Moving the slide in or out will change the note higher or lower based on the needs of the musician. In addition to the standard trombone, there are variations that are available. The valve trombone is similar in shape, but has valves like a trumpet or cornet and has a fixed slide. A triggered trombone has become popular with musicians who have graduated from beginner to a more advanced level of play. These triggered trombones look like a standard "S" trombone, but on the upper portion of the instrument has a value, similar to a French Horn, to divert the air and change the note. This is generally seen as an "F" attachment trombone but can be in other keys. This attachment, in the "F" range is generally used to eliminate the need to position the slide into the seventh position or to quickly change notes without having to move the slide. Finally, there is another trombone commonly called a Super Bone or Super Trombone. This trombone is tricky to play, but produces incredibly unique sounds and the master of the Super Bone is a talented musician. A Super Bone combines the valves of the valve trombone with the slide and trigger of a regular trombone. This trombone like as unique and amazing as it sounds. This trombone can be played slide only, valve only, or a combination of both at the same time.
A shorty and a serious lunatic.
There is no other instrument other than the trombone with a slide. There are variations of the trombone though. For example, there is a trombone made with a slide and valves. There are also different types of trombones. There is the bass trombone, tenor trombone, alto trombone, soprano trombone (slide trumpet), and piccolo trombone. (Please note that the soprano trombone, or slide trumpet, does not have valves. It is also called a slide trumpet because it has the same exact range, sounds like a trumpet, and uses a trumpet mouth piece.) There has also been plastic, wooden, and metal trombones made. I hope that this helped!

The trombone isn't a stringed instrument. so it has a lot of things that stringed instruments don't have. Like a mouthpiece.
