VINTAGE HENRI SELMER PARIS LARGO TENOR TROMBONE circa 1960s
Vintage Henri Selmer Paris Largo tenor trombone serial number 8710. This instrument was manufactured in France in the late 1960s. Remarkable condition for its age. The Largo slide bore is. 547 and the bell measures 8 11/16 (220 mm). This instrument plays very well and has a bright tonal quality, somewhat unusual for a symphonic bore instrument. The bell brass is heavier than most, which accounts for its ability to project well. It is a terrific solo instrument or great for a small ensemble. The bell engraving reads: HENRI SELMER/ PARIS/ SELMER/ MADE IN FRANCE. The slide receiver barrel reads Largo and the mouthpiece receiver barrel has the Henri Selmer Paris logo with the serial number. The bell section is in very good condition with minimal signs of damage. There are some scratches and tiny dings on the bell throat and flare. Lacquer is 80+% intact, with wear at the neck tube, tuning slide crook and 1. Lacquer has flaked at the bell flair bead (see pic). There are signs of previous dent work on the tuning slide crook, but its in good shape and moves freely. The handslide has been overhauled: lacquer stripped, dings removed, tubes flex-honed, slide aligned and new felts installed. A slight crease on the slide receiver barrel does not affect handslide operation. The inner slide tubes are in excellent condition and handslide action is 8-9/10. The handslide has been Flitz polished. This gem is clean and ready to howl! Just add slide lube; comes with a custom hardshell case. Its clean and in very good condition. Ive been a player, collector and repair tech for many years, but now find that its become more of a burden than a joy to keep, restore, and maintain so many trombones.
