Post by greenbean »

Anybody here win this? The most interesting horn I recall seeing from Goodwill! But buying was out of the question for me...

What model is that? 180? 181?

Also, holy fifth valve slide! around the leadpipe(!) and allllllll the way down the back. Hope you don't want to pull it while playing.

How many people are pulling fifth on the fly? On most horns it’s usually out of the space the other slides occupy.

It might be a quint valve?

People pulling any valve slide on the fly is a head scratcher for me. :)

Gonna be tough pulling the slide on a left-hand fifth valve unless you're doing it in advance.
