I have a couple of items that I may part with for the right price or trade for.
Double Dependent valve section for tenor on a Shires system
(Accepting all Shires bells, slide and tuning)
Greenhoe (Schilke) lightweight Yellow bell from a GB-4 with Shires fittings.
Valve $1000
Bell $850
Info on the valve section from previous-previous owner.
“
It has stock shires receiver, bell braces, flanges, & tuning slide receiver. The first rotor is a Bach 36/42 rotor and the second rotor is from a German trombone. The tubing for the F side is from the original Bach 42, and the tubing for the D side is from a Conn 88H. The neckpipe is a Schilke piece. The linkage paddles are from a Duo Gravis.
The forum member I bought it from told me that Ted Woehr at Volkweins in Pittsburgh did the work.
I had the paddles worked on to split the triggers and had the dependent valve switched from string to mechanical linkage. I left the main F trigger alone.”
let me know…
