What is an Edwards 118CF trombone? Currently on EBAY. Looks nice but is it a 500 bore horn? Comes with three leadpipes. Cannot find information on Edwards website.

Additional information can be helpful.

No idea what the bell is but that one looks like it’s a medium or large bore. The neckpipe s on the small bores have a straight lower bell brace whereas the large ones have an “s” shaped brace.

I think that's a .525 bore born. It has a MBTN slide and the leadpipes are marked 525 on them.

The bell is one listed on the Edwards website and is an 8 inch bell made of 22 gauge Red brass. It has the CF heat treating, a soldered bead, is double buffed, and tempered.

Probably an auto fill by a browser extension because that’s the OPs registered email
