.508 flavor of the XO Fedchock. Gold/Rose brass bell.

Got this as a demo model 2 years ago and it is almost perfect. No dents or dings of any kind. Lacquer is 99.9% (one tiny scuff that took me 2 weeks to find when I bought it). Slide action is perfect. One inner has a small blemish and does not affect it at all.

It has not been played much, as I am a large bore player and now I am getting into bass and this sale will help fund my next bass.

Original case and 12C mouthpiece included.

Pics available if interested.

$1100 including shipping. CONUS only

PM me with any questions and pic requests.

Is the 12C mouthpiece widely played any more? I find them too small for my chops.

Are trombonists going larger because it is trendy, or are we wising up to what best for our faces?

I found the included mouthpiece far too small for me coming from larger horns and mouthpieces. I ended up using a FAXX 6 1/2AL and it worked well. It also works with a Bach 4C and for a softer, mellower approach a Bach 5G also sounded nice.

Hi,

I believe the XO1634 comes in one of two possible bell setups: yellow (1634LT) or rose brass (1634RLT). Do you think your horn might be the rose brass version?

Thx,

Eric
