Do all tenor trombones have triggers?
No. Your basic trombone is a tenor trombone, it's what everyone just calls a trombone. However, triggers can be added to make playing fast rhythms on a trombone easier. Triggers are also used to make it possible to reach lower notes that are difficult to play on a standard tenor trombone.
Is the trombone a scholarship instrument?
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. Source(s) 7 years of playing tenor trombone, 2 years of doubling on Euphonium, Bass Trombone, & Tuba.
