Just to p*ss you off, of course! In reality, there probably aren't all that many of them in existence, and they are likely to be owned by European band musicians who do not spend much time here on Tubenet.
well, willson did not p#ss me off in the frankfurt messe, that's for sure
I loved the frontaction
aren't you a willson exclusive player?
(read that somewhere on the willson site if i remember well)
That super-long third valve tubing that actually extends below the bottom of the horn has always bothered me. It's fragile, in a dangerous place, and seems like even a mild pull of the slide could make it hit against your chair.
JP/Sterling 377 compensating Eb; Warburton "The Grail" T.G.4, RM-9 7.8, Yamaha 66D4; for sale > 1914 Conn Monster Eb (my avatar), ca. 1905 Fillmore Bros 1/4-size Eb, Bach 42B trombone

yes, I noticed that too
it's a characteristic of all 3+1 compensating horns, but this 3100 is more compactly wrapped than others, the 3rd valve tube is the same length, so it comes lower to the chair.
