I spotted this unique trombone on Gumtree for sale by Cash Converters (a local pawn shop chain).
It's a quality Besson International trombone.
Only asking $800 AUD and it's still available.

Jack Teagarden often played the final chorus of “St James Infirmary” by taking off his bell, and playing into a water glass held on the tenon. Here’s a YouTube of one of the best recordings:



Here’s a video of him doing it on Jack Armstrong’s Blues:

I can't, for the life of me, see why this has not been snapped up!

It’s an enob.
