IN A TRUE VINTAGE KING TROMBONE!
Vintage King trombones far out perform the new ones.
Here’s you chance to own a great looking and playing professional trombone
for way less than the price of a new one.
THIS IS A GREAT TROMBONE FOR JAZZ, SYMPHONY OR ALL-AROUND PLAYING!
The guys that really knew how to build horns at the original H.N. White Company plant in Cleveland, OH crafted this fine trombone.
INCLUDES A LARGE SHANK MOUTHPIECE AND A CASE
This trombone was restored and relacquered by a different shop and needed a little help to put it in top playing condition.  We did a slide alignment and replaced the upper cork barrel and inner slide tube with a similar vintage one in better condition.  There is a little wear on the inner slide tubes, but the slide works very well.  There are also a couple of dings in the f attachment and some scratches and pitting in the hand hold areas.  Most of this can be seen in the pictures.
I have dropped the price to reflect these minor issues.
I usually sell this model for 50 - 00 so here's your chance to save hundreds on a great H N White vintage King trombone!
THIS TROMBONE REALLY LOOKS GOOD AND PLAYS GREAT!!
This King 5B trombone has an 9” brass bell and a .547” bore
and features nickel silver outer slide tubes for superior slide action.
T
he King 5B is a symphonic model professional trombone
using a large shank mouthpiece.
PUT THAT BACH OR CONN ON THE SHELF
AND EXPERIENCE THE FANTASTIC TONE, RESPONSE AND SLIDE ACTION
OF A GENUINE KING TROMBONE!!
This could be the only trombone you need
!
It is an extremely versatile instrument.
The 5B produces a nice full warm tone, but can be as bright as you need when pushed.
With a 6-1/2AL or similar mouthpiece you can do anything from solo to 3
rd
trombone concert or symphonic work.  A 4 or 5G size takes advantage of the 9" bell yielding a large, warm tone that is great for solo or symphonic playing.  If 3
rd
parts are your thing, a 1-1/2G bass trombone mouthpiece allows you to really bang out the low notes!
The King 5B is an outstanding all around trombone
for solo and concert band or symphonic work.
King trombones have long been
the choice of professional trombone players from Tommy Dorsey
in the 1940’s and 1950's to legendary trombonists Urbie Green, Kai Winding, JJ Johnson and
present day artists like Jiggs Whigham
.
AN OUTSTANDING PROFESSIONAL TROMBONE!!
DON’T LET THIS ONE GET AWAY!!!

I take great care to make sure you are receiving a good quality instrument and to describe it accurately.
If something's not right - I'll make it right.
The pictures tell the story.
I personally play everything I sell, so there’s nothing to worry about
.
I’m a band director and professional musician playing tuba to trumpet and everything in between.
If I wouldn’t have it in my house, I won’t send it to yours!
I’ve just collected too many instruments and other "horn stuff", between the community band that I direct (plus 3 others I play in – yes, I’m a little crazy!) and 2 kids that played in band in school.
It’s time to “thin the herd”, so I’ll be listing some more instruments and “horn stuff” soon.
UPDATE:
Thanks to all who have bought “stuff from my closet”
.
This has gone so well, that I’ve opened an Ebay store and will be looking for nice items (mostly band instruments and “horn stuff”) to offer for sale on Ebay as well as selling for band members and friends.
If there is something you’d like, just email me with your request and I’ll try to find it for you.
UPDATED UPDATE:
MANY THANKS TO ALL MY PAST CUSTOMERS!
I'm now starting my 14th year on eBay with sales to 30 countries and all 50 states, and great positive feedback!  Thanks to all of you, I've achieved some of eBay's top ratings, plus a lot of great horns have been rescued and are now enjoying a new life all around the world.
