For sale is a Shires tenor trombone with axial valve and detachable flare bell. It has some cosmetic wear, but plays quite well. I'm selling to change directions back to smaller equipment. The horn does not come with a case; if requested, I can try to rustle up a Bach case or similar.
The components:
- 7YLW bell. The screwbell conversion was done by Dana Hofer. Has scratches and a bit of acid bleed at the rim.
- TB47 slide. Has some scratches and wear at the contact points. Action is 8.5/10. Choice of #1 or #3 leadpipes.
- Axial valve. Has some wear on the neckpipe, otherwise in quite good shape. Valve action is excellent.
- Yellow tuning slide (standard, unmarked). Has a lot of lacquer wear, but no dents.

Asking $3600 plus shipping. I am open to offers, as well as trades for an independent rotary-valve bass trombone or a Boosey & Hawkes globe stamp euphonium. If you are interested, please contact me at jazztrombonesm @ gmail . com or via PM here and we can work out details.
Thanks for looking!

If you end up parting this out, I would be interested in the bell and tuning slide.
