The bell says 40H and looks like a 40H

Re: Conn 1H/40H
The H and K appear to be part numbers and not model. A 40H is a TIS tenor with 0.500" bore and a Ballroom (short) bell. I have two that I "frankenboned" to make one good one. Anybody want some parts?

Hi,
A long time since you posted this. But if you have a 40H slide section with all the pieces, even if it's not in great shape, I could find it very useful.

Re: Conn 1H/40H
I still have the "reject" 40H trombone. It actually plays OK, but the lower cork barrel has some deep etchings making it uncomfortable to hold and the bell was delacquered using some kind of buffing wheel so it has developed an odd patina. Unfortunately I am no longer at home and can't get my hands on it. Plus, it is located in New Hampshire USA and I can't ship it anywhere. Sorry.
