Here is a Benge 190F large-bore F-att trombone in superb condition. This is an earlier example, see engraving, with gold brass bell, open wrap, and King's excellent valve. I have owned several of these and always had issues with the valve lever - it forces my thumb into a painful position. So, on this one, I replaced it with a lever from a Bach 42. Everything works beautifully: hand slide, valve, tuning slides. Horn is clean and ready for gigs. I love how these play. But one has to makes choices... Comes in a NOS King case that fits perfectly. $1500 + shipping

Nice ergonomic upgrade, I may have to do similar to my Benge.
