Bit of a trombone question. I have been asked to sell some of our old band instruments on ebay. we have been successful so far but we have half of a trombone that i have been asked questions about and i can't answer one of them, i was wondering if any of you can help. The trombone is the bell section of a besson, and the number (i'm guessing it's te serial number) is 942- EXP. Does anyone know what the EXP means? Any help would be much appreciated
Does it not stand for Experimental - e.g. it is a prototype besson? the number stands for the Besson Model number, it is a 942 trombone, I used to own a 940. There was a Baritone on Ebay about 2 years ago that was a Prototype 956, and it had a name like EXP 3 or something...
My googling turned up zilch on this one, but someone on the trombone forum might have a clue if you posted there http://tromboneforum.org/
