Description

  Straight from our brass (and silver) instrument repair shop, our USED horns are brought back to life...All major dents are removed, joints re-soldered (if needed), patches repaired (if necessary) and the slides reworked.  Our horns may be buffed, but all are hand polished to a good shine and are in good playable condition. For the collector who is looking for an instrument; we try to keep the original parts whenever possible; if the playability is good, we feel it should be left to the buyer's discretion to replace parts as desired.  We are proud to offer this refurbished instrument for sale. We have tried to describe it as it is, and have shown the condition in the pictures provided. We are happy to answer any questions asked.   #85/2016U p for sale is a 1964 FE Olds & Son Opera O23 Professional Tenor Trombone with F-Key, manufactured in Fullerton, Calif. Slide bore .450/.450, with a 8.5" diameter bell flare.  The serial number on the horn is #464xxx.  It is predominately made of solid nickel silver with a yellow brass valve.  There is some residual lacquer that can be seen in various places. There are various small dings and light scratching throughout.  There is no pitting at the clean grips.  Please see the pictures for overall good condition. The slide action is very good to excellent, and the stockings are in near perfect condition with excellent compression.For the most part, this instrument is not lacquered, but it has some old residual lacquer visible; therefore, this instrument may have to be polished periodically (we recommend using Weiman METAL Polish). This trombone comes with a mouthpiece(may not be the one pictured) and is shipped in an original OLDS used case. This is a beautiful playing horn.  It has the Big Bore sound and slots very well, has great intonation with tons of power, but can be a soft player as well with a beautiful high range. I would compare it with my personal 88H CL2000 Conn.  It is just about the same and I really like the well-designed mechanical valve on this Opera.  Thanks for looking and check out our other items!Please note:  We accept Domestic returns within two weeks; Buyer pays return shipping. **Please note: if choosing FedEx for shipping, please provide physical address, not PO Box.
