Question
we are checking on a conn 2h ser 3251172 OWNED BY CECIL FLETCHER TILL HIS DEATH ITS NICELY ENGRAVED IN ORIG CASE WITH A VINCENT BACH 12 C MOUTHPIECE HE USED IT IN THE BIG BAND ERA CAN YOU TELL US ANY MORE ABOUT IT SIR

Answer
Hi Rob,

I can't really tell you its worth, but it is a good instrument. It's pretty small for modern use, so I don't think it's of great value, apart from sentimental value.
You can find more information on this trombone at: http://www.xs4all.nl/~cderksen/ConnTrbHFull.html

Hope that helps,
