A cool little TIS horn. Gorgeous counterweight.

.440/.450 bore. Yes, you read that right. And it's a paint peeler. Takes a modern mouthpiece and sounds like what a trombone was supposed to sound like 100 year ago. Nickel inners. Pretty smooth for its age. Some resolder work done to braces. Case is musty and old, and has a moderately racist bumper sticker on it (Go Skins) but it protects the horn well. TIS mechanism works well.
Buyer pays shipping.
