SOLD

For sale is a King Tempo 1306 nickel-plated straight tenor trombone.

.500" bore, 8" bell. Great sound. A few pings/scuffs on the bell and needs the slide addressed (I'd rate current action maybe a 7/10, bit of a hang coming into 1st position). Needs a bit of TLC and it will be a great player.

Asking $250 as-is plus shipping to CONUS. Comes with King hard case.

PM or email b [dot] taylor [nine] [zero] at gmail.

Thanks!

I’ve heard these referred to as “a poor man’s 2B”. Great little horns. One of my trombone students had one in the 80’s. Very underrated horn.

I sent a PM.

Apparently the standard practice is to also post a notice ... ?

I gather this horn has sold, or is no longer for sale in any case (or I didn't get PMing right and they didn't go) ... ?

I've got a nickel tempo bell section I was planning on doing something with, but I think I'll hold off for now. I can get you details if you want to send email
