I just rec'd (pre-sold to a school) one of the JP/Rath 333 bass trombones

REALLY nice instruments...
Usually, the playing slides on these - end-to-end - are within .002" of being parallel.
This particular one was factory dialed in at .000".
These are made of 80/20 "gold" brass - including the outside slide tubes...so no chance of any red-rot.
The really high-grade zipper hard case is reminiscent of Marcus Bonna (re: style/quality).
(I believe I would pull off the balancer and stuff it in the sock drawer, but that's just me.)
I'll quote a confidential price...Just send me a p.m...and no, these are not $750 "instrument-shaped objects".
These are professional-grade instruments.
