Does anyone know if Shires trombone parts will work with an XO trombone and vice versa? I have an XO 1236LO and I was wondering if a Shires trombone leadpipe would fit in an XO trombone slide. Also, I was wondering if a Shires handslide would fit an XO bell vice versa.

Leadpipes no. Not sure what slide connector XO uses, though.

XO trombones will accept Edwards/Getzen leadpipes, however.

And the mounting hardware for the bell? which threads does XO use? 1/2 - 32 ?
