*SOLD*
Selling an Accord large bore/F-attachment trombone made by Blessing in Elkhard IN, 90's vintage, before Blessing moved production to China. A well-made, respected Intermediate level horn.
In good condition with some wear and a few shallow dings. There is an area on the bell flare that seems to be tarnish underneath the lacquer, it does not polish out but has not gotten worse either.
Playing condition is excellent. Fully cleaned, slide is in good repair and a a solid 8/10 with lube; trigger and tuning slides work well. Chrome plating is intact on the inners.
The slide and bell are fully compatable with a Conn 88H, so this can make a good back-up slide or bell if needed.
It plays well IMO, compared with an Elkhart 88H it feels and blows nearly identical, but is not quite as resonant and overall is slightly heavier.
$400. located in central NJ for pick-up. I will consider shipping, but ask for payment through PayPal and shipping to be handled by the buyer, you can pre-pay and email me the shipping label.
