This used tenor trombone has a raw gold brass cut bell and handslide both made by Boosey & Hawkes in the early 1990s, paired with a Greenhoe valve section. It includes an extra Conn 8H straight gooseneck in raw yellow brass, allowing the instrument to be converted from a single-rotor valve tenor to a straight tenor setup—versatile enough for any playing situation, from jazz and commercial to orchestral and soloist work. It plays with very good slide action and combines a rich orchestral sound (with the F attachment) with a compact feel.
The trombone has been professionally cleaned and is gig-ready. The slide shows some lacquer wear and surface scratches but remains in solid working condition. It comes with a gorgeous black leather Marcus Bonna cut-bell case, which includes an attached music bag and is in excellent shape.
