[Trombone-l] 1938 Conn 70H slide too long...

[thetubameister@roadrunner.com]

Amen!  It's the only thing that drives me bats about my Edwards bass - the %$@# slide cant reach C!

J.c. (with a 70H that can!)

Soooo, would any of you out there just happen, by pure chance, to have an old 70H case you'd like to get rid of? Or failing that any old Conn bass trombone case that I might alterd to fit? Please let me know. And just so you know, I tried all of my Holton and Getzen cases -- Bell fits, but the slide is too long. Also, I could be persuaded to post an update on my Holton TR-180 project if anyone's interested. (Search "Holton TR-180" in the List's search bar to review my previous posts).
