Hello everyone,
I have this trombone and I'd like to know if anybody can give me some info...
Do you know from which year may be? Is this any good? My idea would be sell it, what can I ask for it?
The slide doesn't have any bump but it's a little sticky.
Thanks a lot!
Albert

According to the serial number list on Horn u copia its from the mid 1930's.
Old Bueschers are beautiful well built horns but don't command much of a value. You can put in on ebay and see what the market says. I'd guess around $200

Buescher made some nice trombones! Very interesting build also, thanks for sharing- you should be playing it! It also says low pitch which is good.

I have a couple of Buescher bells in my shop. They have a unique construction in which the bell side has a reversed tuning slide......just like some of Mike Corrigan's BAC horns. I have temporarily rigged them up with a .500 bore slide a couple of times to test them. They sound wonderful. I'm looking forward to the day when I can fix them up and equip them permanently with slides!
