Ahh, the elusive '8th Position'. 8th position DOES exist, it's just incredibly impractical most of the time. To get to 8th you basically balance the outer slide on the very edge of the inner slide and lip it down the rest of the way. really, unless it's a first note or after a bunch of rests then there is little point as a trigger Trombone will substitute.
the "thing" you pull out of a trombone is called a slide. The slide has seven positions, but seventh position is rarely used.
The position for high E flat on the trombone is third position. :)
It's B natural 7th position or slightly-flat second with trigger on a tenor trombone, or any Bb (B flat) pitched trombone.
g is in fifth position
2nd position, in all octaves.

A trombone is a physical thing.
It's B natural 7th position or slightly-flat second with trigger on a tenor trombone, or any Bb (B flat) pitched trombone.
a trombone is played by blowing air in the thing and moving the slide
A sharp is effectively a B flat, which is first position on a B flat trombone whether it is low or high.
First position, except for low F, which is sixth position.
g is in fifth position
2nd position, in all octaves.
On a trombone, the 7th position typically extends about 30 to 32 inches from the bell, depending on the individual player's arm length and the specific trombone model. This position is often used for low notes and requires the slide to be fully extended. Players may need to adjust their posture slightly to reach this position comfortably.
A low B(natural) on a Trombone is in the 7th position (a little bit past 6th position) The high one can either be played in that position or 4th position. For a Trombone position chart click on the related link below.
