Well, Trumpet is in Bb and Trombone is in C, so transposing is the same as it would be from Clarinet to flute (which makes sense to me then).

First, the key changes....so if you were in Bb for trumpet, you would be in C for trombone...you take away 2 flats/add 2 sharps if going from trumpet to trombone.

Once the key is taken care of, then you can transpose by just taking the trumpet note and putting it down a whole step.

Then, you transpose it into bass clef, which is pretty self-explanatory, but you just take that note and put it down an octave or so, into the trombone's range.

Actually, part of that answer is incorrect. If the trumpet music is in B-flat, Trombone music (a concert pitch instrument) will be one step below that in A-flat.

Why does b flat trombone not transpose on reading bass clef?

The Trombone does NOT transpose, the player does. With that said, if the music is written in Bb Bass Clef, one does transpose in Bass clef. Most Bass Clef music is in C Bass clef, but the player has learned how to read in concert pitch, so there is no transposition needed.

How do you change guitar to trumpet notes?

Assuming the guitar music is written for a standard guitar with no capo, and assuming you are playing on a B-flat trumpet, you transpose up a full step. So, if the guitar note is C, you play a D on a b-flat trumpet. If you are playing on a C trumpet, you don't have to transpose.
