Nice pre-war (just barely) Holton 65 in remarkably intact silver plate. Pretty horn!
Some small dents in the tuning and main slide crooks, not bad really. Some slide stocking wear but still a very smooth slide, all the way up and down. Very clean. Asking $300 plus shipping.
Please ask for pics if interested. No case but could throw in a good mouthpiece.
Will also consider trade for a good/very good condition Selmer Bolero, Reynolds Argenta or .500 bore Contempora, or King 2BL Jiggs bell section (only) in decent condition.

FYI, unless you're looking for the Jiggs version with the shortened tuning slide, you're just looking for any standard 2B bell section - it's only the slide (and engraving) that's different.

I beg to differ....Jiggs bells are considerably lighter and don't come with balance weights.

I'm in eastern MA and of course would prefer "local" transaction to avoid shipping costs and risk of damage. AND you get to see and try the horn!

Thanks, very cool but I ain't buying new. Jiggs bells get mute rash galore if you look at them sideways. I just want a bell I could "trash" on mute-heavy gigs.

Sorry - the point there was that the bell is the same part on the the standard 2B and the Jiggs (same goes for the other bell section components). Anyway, good luck with the sale/trade.

Thanks, ithinknot. I have a Tempo bell now which is student, plus it pairs with a .500 slide in real life so playability is slightly diminished. IMHO. Yes, any 2B bell will fit the Jiggs slide.
