TromboneChat

I lent my Thein bass trombone to a friend of mine for a project, so I‘m spending more time on the Conn Fuchs and the Williams 10. Out of curiosity I added the costs of these two bass trombones and I questioned myself if I ever would decide to sell one or both horns what would be the right price for them? What would be the right price for you if you would sell or buy them?

Can of worms.

Can of worms wrapped in a thirst trap.

As I don't own them, I'd be willing to sell them for a small administrative charge (to cover dial-up internet, sawdust for the office floor, &c.).

Don't go down the "make me an offer" route. The buyer quite reasonably assumes they're getting screwed, and everyone gets their time wasted.

I’d give a kidney for that 10

Hagmann's on a Fuchs?

Wasn't there a Fuchs that changed hands not too long ago?

I believe that was my Fuchs that I sold to Mike Szabo in Australia. Don’t think any have since changed ownership.

I got it from a friend in Vienna. Mike still has his one. I let M&W install the Hagmanns. Turned out to be a Ferrari. Couldn‘t get better.

At the moment I don‘t need an other one, but if I would I know who to ask for

Man you have money to burn.

…a lot of money!
However, one needs a past time.

So you think it‘s better to keep them?

You own them. Your decision.

If you’re looking to sell the 10, I might know someone interested

Drew, at this rate you're soon going to have every Williams trombone that was ever made in your hands

Ha! I wish!

You sure love dependent valves (as do I )

Awesome! It’s a hobby! And hobby’s are allowed to cost money

@Wilco: Sureand it costs a lot

I‘m sure I‘ll never get the money I invested out of them. So I guess a trade would be the best way if someone wants the Williams or the Fuchs. And I guess a lot of people know which brand I like the most
