Interesting old Trombone

Post by SirJohn »

Saw this listing on ebay when browsing. Anyone want to take a stab of what it is a stencil of:

My first reaction on seeing the title was pretty skeptical, but that old case it comes with is something else.

It's Czech. Kalashon was one of the stencil names they used. Very narrow bell throat, good for cutting down to make a fakebut or homemade alto. It is neither 19th century nor does it play well.

Good info. Figured someone here would be able to identify it and that my original feeling was correct. I was scratching my head on it as it didn't look like any Conn, Bach, King, Olds, etc that I have seen.
