Thanks for posting that. I enjoyed seeing Andy, Tommy, Doc and Johnny again.

The trombone played in the clip is interesting. It looks like a Selmer (London) Lincoln model from the early 1960s. The bracing for the counterweight is quite distinctive but I am surprised that a modest, European-made student trombone would appear on an American TV show!
Was it sold in the US, perhaps under another name; was it a stencil horn for a dealer or a manufacturer? Anybody recognize it?

Cheers

Tommy said they got it at a pawn shop. 😁

That was fun.

Good enough, for no warm up and a lousy chair to sit in.

He'd sound better if he didn't tongue with "tu"

Cool……Andy Griffith played Wagner! That was the Song of the Evening Star from Tannhauser.
