We had a set of silverplated Selmer tenor trombones in the Israeli Army 
Band.
Bolero is the model name of large bore symphony tenor. They had the model 
363 for straight tenor and 365B for F-attachment
trombone.
The:trombones had nice warm sound but were a little stuffy and had  much 
resistance - which made you work harder.
The trigger had teflon linkagen (like the Olds bass Trombone) which was not 
so thumb friendly... all instruments (including the F-attachment horn!!!) 
had a heavy counterweight that was too heavy and we finally had them 
removed.

Selmer discontinuedd these horns and went to Bach-shaped horns.
