I’m letting go of this great horn. 7.75” 2RLW bell with .508 regular weight brass slide.

Purchased (I think) in 2003 this instrument most likely has a bell spun by Steve. It has an enormous tonal palette and really shines in loud situations giving the player tons of feedback. It does have a few small dings on the bell and one good one on the gooseneck. The slide has a very slight alignment issue, but I chose not to spend the money to fix it as the slide is still very very fast.

Comes with two tuning slides (one yellow brass and one gold brass), three leadpipes (1, 2, and 3), and a hardly used protec case.

$1700 plus shipping and any transaction fees.

Would you consider selling the yellow brass tuning slide separately?

All of these components belong together - sort of a special set of early Shires small bore stuff so I'm going to pass them on as such.
