When building an instrument - in this case a trombone - which material is the easiest, respective hardest, to work with? Does that differ depending on what trombone is built - like some materials are easier on altos, while others are easier on basses?

Which alloy (or metal) is the most adaptable and problem-free to work with? Which gives the most satisfying results?

Curious mind asks many questions. :idea:
