FS: Conn 90G Upright Large Bore Valve Trombone

Here's something different! It's like a valve trombone, but upright and with more "normal" dimensions. The bore is like a symphonic tenor at .547 and the bell is 8-1/2". Looks like a nice horn for some uses. Very fine condition. Nickel plated with lacquer over it. Case is included. The pistons look great. The current bid is $909, and I have NO idea what such a horn is worth! But it is unusually configured and would play much better than a typical valve trombone, I assume.

SOLD FOR $1,552

Interesting! Looks like a trombonium like some marching bands use. OSU under Paul Droste marched with those for a time.
