Looking for an Edwards bass bell section with rotors and a lighter-weight bell. Any offers will be entertained, however.
Up for trade is a Shires bass bell section with dependent Tru-Bore valves. All details listed below:
[color=#FF0000]SOLD-Bell: Shires BII2Y, 9.5" 2-piece broad (Bach-like) taper yellow brass bell with soldered bead in a brushed then lacquered finish
[color=#FF0000]SOLD-Tuning slide: Shires gold brass C-taper
[color=#FF0000]PENDING-Valve section: Shires Tru-Bore dependent valves in Bb/F/D
The bell is pre-Eastman vintage and has a unique brushed finish that has been lacquered over, while the inside of the bell was left polished. The valves have great compression and show cosmetic lacquer wear throughout. The tuning slide is dent-free and in great shape, but does have a few minor scratches. Please look over the photos to get a feel for the specific condition.
