[Trombone-l] Old Conns

[Dave and Pam Sherman]

You may have an alignment problem.  Check each slide tube individually.  
If they each work ok then it might be an alignment problem.  Has your 
slide end bow been dented?  That is a common cause of misalignment.  A 
good slide tech should be able to determine the problem.
