Just a heads up, you need one more approved post before people can contact you. Feel free to make it anywhere, one of us usually gets to it pretty quick.

Nice horns. I've had mine since around 1973.

If I hadn't just bought a house I'd probably jump on it. Looks like its in great condition and I've been digging Kings lately.

I think the King 4B is underrated. I had a silver plated one and used it in several applications but it was best for me in Concert Band. I sold mine to a kid who needed it more than I did and played it much better than me.

This arrangement is the older style trigger which I like but many don't. Your thumb goes behind the bell brace so you support the instrument with the webbing of your left hand between thumb and forefinger. If you have to march a trombone with F, this is a great choice.

I really do not understand how to use this website, especially in regards to posting and contacting others. Is there a tutorial someplace. I don't this user friendly at all.
