[Trombone-l] trying to learn about my grandfather's trombone

[Jeff Albert]

Well, that serial number puts it circa 1957.  If you could take a few
pics, you could probably have a model number answer pretty quickly.
There should be a model number engraved or stamped near the serial
number on the slide receiver.  It would likely be a one or two digit
number followed by the letter H.  Of course the number could be worn
down too.

It's a Conn with an 8" bell, no model name or number engraved, but I did find this serial number: 664435.  I don't know the exact vintage but I expect it's 40+ years old.  A little searching on someone's Conn site leads me to believe it may be a Conn 6H horn.   Curious for any info trombone enthusiasts may have about this instrument.  (Layman's terms, please, as I'm not a brass player..)  Many thanks.
