    Tenor Trombones - For Sale
For Sale: Bach 42
Bach 42 tenor trombone. This trombone has a serial number of 84XX (made in 1966). I took it to a shop and it has not been refurbished in its lifetime. The whole horn seems to be in gold brass. The counter weight is easily taken off with a screwdriver. It truly sounds good and was used professionally for several years. It is the best sounding horn I have played hands down! The high Bb is an ease to get to, and it has a real beefy low section. It looks great as well! Comes with a mouthpiece and the original case that doesn't waste space like the modern ones. Email me at kodagoldberg4@gamil.com if you have any questions, or just simply want pictures. I would be happy to send the whole gallery to you. I am willing to ship if you live in another state or far away (I prefer paypal over any payment option).

For Sale: Bach 42G
circa-1976 Bach 42G straight tenor. I recently acquired this horn, and have decided that the sound is a bit too dense/dark for my taste. The horn has been in a closet for the last 20+ years, and is in gorgeous condition. The bell is unscathed, aside from a 3" lacquer bleed on the immediate outside flare of the bell -- I just noticed it as I write this. The tuning slide looks brand new, and the handslide has wear in the usually grip spots. I would rate the slide action a 9 or 10, and that's without having it cleaned professionally. The horn does not come with a counterweight ($80 Bach counterweights are at Hickey's) and it has the original case. I hate to part with the horn, as I'm sure I could get more in the future or even convert it to a valve, but I can't justify the time/expense right now. $1400 includes CONUSA shipping.

For Sale: Bach 42BO
Bach 42BO all yellow brass with clear lacquer finish. Comes with 6.5AL mouthpiece & rarely used original brown Bach case. Bought in July of 2006 brand new from Woodwind Brasswind in Indiana. It is in excellent playing condition with only a few dents in the bell from mutes that do not affect the playing whatsoever. The slide is completely ding/dent free. I am a college music major who has just upgraded trombones. I am simply trying to sell one of my extra trombones. I am asking $1900 for this used one because a new Bach 42BO today would set you back at least $2500. I am willing to negotiate, however. If interested please contact me by email at krenchen5388@yahoo.com. Will email pictures upon request.

For Sale: Conn 88H
1991 Conn 88H $950 plus actual shipping, firm --- This bell has no dents or dings, but you can see coloration from relacquering, possibly after dent removal. It looks like it's been repaired where the bell throat meets the brace, but this is minor. I'm pretty picky about slides, and I'd say slide action without much cream on it is about 8.75/10, & should improve with grease. The slide was recently aligned. The valve and valve register play great. This horn plays more open, a bit bigger sounding than the other Conn I am advertising. Easy blowing and even. The bell engraving does not have decoration and simply says "C.G. Conn LTD Artist Symphony USA." The rest of the condition is used but quite good. Pics are at http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z10/rbegel/?start=all although I believe the horn looks better than in the pics, which came out a bit dark. Comes with the original case and a Bach 6.5 AL mouthpiece.

For Sale: Conn 88H
1972 Conn 88H $950 plus actual shipping, firm The bell has one clear ding that can be felt from the other side and several of those small annoying dings that arenŐt worth fixing. It looks like itŐs been repaired where the bell throat meets the brace, but this is minor. Slide action without cream on it is about 8.5/10, & should improve with grease. There is some plating wear on the stockings. The slide has not been aligned recently to my knowledge, but doesnŐt really seem to need it although this would also improve performance some. The valve and valve register play great. This horn has a focused, very rich, beautiful sound with a lot of overtones. The bell has that decorative etched engraving around the words "Conn Made in USA." The rest of the condition is used but quite good. Pics are at http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z10/rbegel/?start=all although I believe the horn looks better than in the pics, which came out a bit dark. Comes with the original case and a Bach 6.5 AL mouthpiece.

For Sale: Bach 42BO
I'm selling a Bach 42BO I purchased in 2003. I recently had the slide rebuilt. It was de-dented and the tubes were perfectly straightened out on a metal lathe. It was then reassembled perfectly parallel. Minor dent work on bell and tuning slides was performed as well along with some spot lacquering. After wards it was thoroughly cleaned. Minor bleed under the lacquer around the bell rim(from original manufacturing process). Very common among brass instruments. Normal but unfortunate. This is a great horn for all types of musicians. Whether it be Classical, Jazz, Marching, Ska, Pep. I am asking $1800.00 OBO Included: Bach Trombone Case, Bach 5G mouthpiece Email me for some pictures

For Sale: Conn 88H-CL2000
I have for sale a used Conn 88H- CL 2000. Bell/Valve Serial # is (5 716XXX.) Slide serial number is (1 36XX.) This is the Conn 88H model with the Christian Lindberg valve section. This valve section is roughly equivalent in throw, feel, and response to the new Shires Tru-Bore valve, which is on my new horn. The bell section is red brass and the lacquer on the bell is in excellent condition, only a few scratches and one abrasion, probably about 99.9% lacquer on the bell. Overall the lacquer on the horn is about 90%, most of the wear spots being on the valve section. There are a few tiny dents and mute dings, but they are barely visible from arms length. The valve section has some scratching as well as the lacquer wear, but overall, is in good condition, and 99% dent free. The slide has excellent action, and is very smooth. It does need a slide alignment, but it works excellently the way it is. The inner slide is in excellent condition, with very minor wear on the top of the stockings. The outer slide has some scratching and wear to the lacquer around the slide braces and the slide crook. This trombone plays amazingly well, just as well as my new Shires tenor, but with a slightly less open and wide sound feel. The intonation on this horn is superb. I have lots of pictures, just email! Includes an excellent condition ProTec case, and Bach 6.5 AL mouthpiece, if you need it. $1250.00 INCLUDES continental USA shipping. I MUST sell this by the end of August, so email me with any reasonable offer.

For Sale: Conn 62H
I have a beautiful custom 1971 Conn 62H with tuning in the slide and a Zig Kanstul bell. Open wrap on F side and trigger work was done by Dick Ackright at Best Music repair in Oakland and the D tuning slide (still have the original Eb tuning as well) was done by Robb Stewart of Arcadia, CA (excellent work). Triggers are now independent (but valves are still dependent) so you don't have to roll the thumb for quick double trigger work. The bell is a beautiful, unlacquered bell hand made by Zig Kanstul at his LA factory. Back around 1999 (so one of the early ones, I was told that it had been made for Bill Richenbach). It sounds warm and full, good for orchestral playing (used it as a fellowship student at the Aspen Music Festival) and commercial work. Still has the tuning in the slide. Let me know if you have any questions at all. I have many more pics to offer. Could also include a Cronkite Black Leather Bass Trombone gig bag in excellent shape for an additional $250. This horn is very hard to part with, but I have to make room for others. This is a one of a kind horn and won't be around long!

For Sale: Conn 5I Euphonium
For sale - Conn 5I Euphonium (4 valves) ?? This four valve Conn 5I Euphonium is a part of the long line of classic Conn euphoniums with front facing valves. It was the descendant of the 24I/25I euphoniums. It dates from the unfortunate Texas era, but it was overhauled and relacquered a few years ago and is in excellent shape. The lacquer is baked epoxy and has a few blemishes. There are no real dents, but there are a few places where the surface is uneven from past serious denting and there are some scratches that were not completely buffed out. It has a small shank mouthpiece receiver. Despite its probable heritage, it was made well and has that beautiful classic Conn euphonium sound and, as is the case with all the Conn euphoniums of this style, the intonation is excellent. A handle was added to the main tuning slide when the instrument was overhauled so that the main slide can be moved while playing. In addition, the first and third valve slides can also be moved from above while playing. This is a fine euphonium for those who appreciate the sound of a Conn euphonium. The price is $1500. with a new hard case or $1300. without the case. Pictures of this instrument can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/gp/56693265@N00/mn8R88
