Not a trombone, but this is a nice one! Valves are smooth and quick, the triggers work wonderfully, and the lacquer is in pretty good shape.
The finger hook was removed at some point. For "resonance" I was told. I wouldn't know, no matter how much I practice, cornet is hard... That said, I've had the best time playing on this!
This is the larger .466 bore 921 Sovereign model. From what I understand, this is pretty much the standard cornet design still used now.
Pictured case is included. Mouthpiece not included.
$1250 shipped CONUS/Canada.

Interesting case. What's the vintage on this? Might have a buyer for you.

Thank you! The serial on the horn put it as a 1977 horn. The case the horn came to me barely counted as a case anymore (latches didn't work, smelled funky, and was falling apart). The new case was a spare one I had that had pick and pluck foam. I cut out the foam and 3d printed the accessory compartments. I wouldn't check this case under a plane, but it does its job well. Let me know if there are any other questions!
