Repairing Brass Instruments
Instruments that don't quite fit anywhere
How they are named, shaped, or configured
Hello everyone, I just acquired a cool old trombone with Franz Weber, Maker, Vienna, B J NY Sole Importers Inscribed on the bell. It is in silver, with a nice and uniform patina, and gold wash bell. It has a device that appears to be a stop for adjusting the tuning slide (sorry, I am still working on getting the proper nomenclature). I do see that he is listed under the Makers, but no real info beyond that. Is there anywhere I can find additional information about this craftsman? Many thanks, John
Not just Yamaha
Made in Taiwan since the 1950s, mimicking Conn since the 1960s
