Yes, you would think with the current economy, that "sackbuts" would be more prevalent now and in greater demand than maybe in recent years.

Yeah and the slide would probably work better too.

i remember the old Giardinelli sackbuts we had at Rutgers had horrid slides. No matter how much i worked on it.
