I'm looking to buy the 'Urbie Green' model in good condition. I'm located in the UK, so local would be good.

Cheers, Steve

Steve,

I have a Martin Urbie Green in mint condition. No dent, no scratch, no loss of coating. Slides are 10/10. It had one owner before me and was played altogther a few hours. Its original box is in very good condition, although the pods on which it stands are slightly rusted.

I have a modest level in trombone. I am scared of playing it and risking a damage. I would not think of using it out of home. I was planning to stand still until I really deserve it but your message prompted me into a more realistic route.

The trombone can be seen in Le Touquet (France). Photos available.

Price is 1200€ plus any costs.

Thank you for your message. That sounds like a nice example but a little more than I would be prepared to pay. Cheers, Steve.

Yes, I'm based in the UK and they are a little under £800 new.

They are a Chinese made horn based on the Urbie when the late Chip Hoeler worked with Wessex

I have the opportunity of a used Wessex with Conn 6H replacement slide inners. It's fairly local to me and sounds tempting.
