Did we watch the same video? Most definitely not a Kanstul. The bracing is wrong. The large cross brace on the tuning slide receiver and it looks like it has TIB in the video.

Check this out. 1:41 you get a good shot of his horn. Sure looks like a 110h to me. If you need a good shot of what a Kanstul looks like Noah has one for sale on the Brassark. Zero bracing in the bell section.

Yes. I used to play a horn like that for a couple of years.

George said to me all life played basically a 70h and on all horns he played he put his Burt Herrick leadpipe copied everytime... Olds made and developed his models... He gift to me his original Minick V but in fact was a copy of his Burt Herrick 1 1/2 g custom mouthpiece.... The king of the bass trombone my favorite a special person.... Incredibile... He played a conn but not 110h... Was a model like 98h made for him... He never played a normal horns... Only customs...
