A baritone horn looks somewhat like a miniaturized tuba. A bass Trombone is still a trombone, but slightly larger. It also has an F trigger, which opens up more tubing near the bell of the trombone and changes the note. This allows players to reach the range from a low E flat to a low B, which is physically impossible on a tenor trombone. Some bass trombones also include another trigger, G flat, which can be opened separately or in combination with the F trigger.
A bass trombone with two triggers offers greater versatility, allowing the player to access a wider range of notes and harmonics, particularly in the lower register. The additional trigger facilitates smoother transitions between pitches and enhances overall performance flexibility. However, a single-trigger bass trombone can be sufficient for players who primarily focus on standard repertoire and prefer a simpler instrument. Ultimately, the choice depends on the player's style, repertoire, and personal preference.
The trigger routs air through an additional loop of tubing, which results in pitches being lowered by a fourth. On bass trombones, there is a second trigger, which lowers the pitch by an additional fifth.

Usually the Trombone, Baritone, Euphonium, Tuba, Bass Clarinet, Baritone Sax all play in bass clef.
The advantages of using a bass trombone with a double trigger mechanism include extended range, improved flexibility in playing low notes, and smoother transitions between different registers.

Trombone. Or, since you specified bass a bass trombone.
A bigger trombone is usually a bass trombone.
Obviously the smaller tenor trombone would have room to spare inside a bass bag.
The bass trombone is typically played in the key of Bb.

I would not consider the regular "tenor trombone" to be a scholarship instrument. However, instruments such as the alto and bass trombone are more likely choices as "scholarship instruments.". If you play tenor now, bass wouldn't be too difficult to learn. Euphonium is an alternative that is more like a tenor trombone.
