Stuff for sale

I really just want to unload some of this. I'm selling everything for less than I paid for it, in some cases much less. None of these horns are duds, from a playing point of view. Some of them have cosmetic issues, and some are nearly perfect. I'm trying to consolidate, trimming down to just a few really favorite horns. I've got or can take pictures of each. I've previously posted most of these.

Holton 159 - $1350 In very good condition. Slide is nearly perfect. Valve excellent. No dents. Very little lacquer loss. Case is in very good condition, some removed stickers on outside, but structurally sound. 9" bell, 547/562 slide, no slide wear. Big sound, lighter feel and sound than you'd think.

Yamaha 651 - $500 I originally said I wouldn't sell this, but I have too many horns that I've said that about. I'm keeping a really nice old 24h instead of this. Very nice .500 bore slide. A couple easy to remove dents in bell. No slide wear. Lacquer is in very good condition. Plays great, comfortable grip. Rose bell. Has decent case.

[s] Conn 30h - Please buy this before I change my mind. These horns are entirely underrated. This has some cosmetic issues, but no serious dents. This plays every bit as nice as any pro horn. Dual bore 494/507 (approx like a Bach 16). Some slide wear. Comes with case.[/s]

Conn 48h bell - $200 I bought this from a forum member who had it WAY overpriced (and didn't represent the condition accurately). I've repriced it to reflect what I think it's actually worth. The bell plays fantastic, the way you want an Elkhart 48h to play, but looks like it did duty in the percussion section. Nice rounded gusset on brace, but it's dented and scratched - not big dents, but many small dents and scratches. I shouldn't have to mention this, but YES it does come with a tuning slide. Will fit your 100h, 10h, 6h slide.

Conn 10h - $800 Coprion bell stripped. Custom "wide glide" slide. Kanstul h6 soldered in. No dents. No lacquer. Sweet sound, nice 2 year old custom slide with new inners. Has case.

Conn 8h Elkhart bell only $350 ugly no lacquer, no dents, Elkhart sound, includes tuning slide.

I've got 3 bass trombones, and I only need 1, but I could only bring myself to part with 1. I really like all of them, and can't decide which I would need/want the least or most. Maybe someone with some cash can help me decide.
Olds P24G - $1500 This is in great condition, no dents, a few scratches, a little lacquer loss, no slide wear. Read what the forum has to say about these. You'll either like it or not. 9" bell, closed wrap F, open wrap G/Gb. All nickel silver except rose bell. Some funky ergonomics which I've solved with a popsicle stick and a clamp on thumb rest. Brighter sound than many basses these days.
Conn 70h - $2000 Just got an Eb slide, dual bore, TIS, single trigger, has case. Some slide wear. Lacquer stripped. Easy horn for tenor doublers.

Oh, and I'm looking for a K&M 15270 in-bell stand, used. I just want to have an in-bell stand in case I need one some time. From what I hear, this won't be a main stand. If you have one that's not for you, maybe you can pass it on.

I take paypal. Please contact me through PM or email in profile. Thx!

Lots of action on the 8h bell section. First one with money to my PayPal gets the bell.

There was a flurry of activity over the weekend. Shipped 3 boxes this morning. Two of the boxes went out of the US, so yes, I ship international. Here's how things stand:

Conn 70h - $1500
Yamaha 651 - $500
Conn 10h - $800
Kanstul 1662i - $3000
Kanstul 760 - $750
Olds P24g - $1500

Truth is I can't make up my mind about which bass to keep.
If anyone has a nice 48h, I would do a swap or outright purchase.
