This is a hard to find early King Concert 3B trombone made by H.N. King at their original factory. Serial number is 366748 which dates it to 1955-1960. The slide is smooth, sound is wonderful. Well maintained by a professional jazz player for over 50 years. There are a few very small dings on the bell (see picture, under the logo, to the right). There are fine swirls and scratches, nothing ugly! It could use a polish, and a little restoration though you'd be picky! A little lacquer has rubbed off close to the slide joint. Not a kid's instrument!The case is newer, made of lightweight polyfoam, mfg.by Kaces. I can include a Vincent Bach 6 1/2A mouthpiece. If you have concerns with condition I can send more closeup pictures. I've priced it low so if you want to restore it you will still feel you're getting a great bargain for one of the best players' trombones ever made.
