Just a little thank you to Daniel from Swisstbone!
During the summer I had discussed with him that I am looking for a vintage Conn bass trombone.
He totally over-delivered! So a while later I got a beautiful 60h in very good condition, safely packed and for a fair price.
Discussion in advance with Daniel was great. He very openly shared his impressions of the trombone and named notable observations. In the end I am the very happy owner of a great trombone and have had some really good chats in addition.
Swisstbone is certainly not your regular online shop, but a great point of contact if you have more specific needs.
Thanks again, Daniel!

Agreed, i too bought a vintage bass, a lovely Mt. Vernon 50 from Daniel. Great condition! Very fair negotiating as well, thanks Daniel.

I was wanting to have the bell become modular with my axial bass but decided against that as i just picked up a converted 169 with independent holton rotors
Very excited for that to get here to compare to my Minick bell and the Bach
