Interesting little horn!Bob1062 wrote:My old Eb making me make a stupid face (I used to have a picture from a dixieland show with me "blasting" my bass trombone RIGHT into some little girl's ear with here cupping here hand around her ear and smiling :D). It also apparently gave me a stupid haircut. :D
It is hard to tell from that view - does the bell actually touch the top bow? What is that silvery thing at the crest of the top bow?

Here I am with my 1929-ish Conn 4 banger (playing with the Zenith Brass Band at "New Orleans By The Bay" a few years ago. The festival is no more.)

Here is a particularly flattering shot of me and my Mirafone 186, located just beneath a wonderful portrait of Abe Lincoln [the first one, not the latter-day version]
