HOLTON
TR181
bass bore
10

Holton TR181 Independent Bass from 1980's  with custom valve set-up.  First valve Rotax, Second valve Meinlschmidt, customized. One of a kind instrument. Very dark easy playing bass.  Has 10" Rose Brass Bell, Unlacquered.  Nickel Silver .562 Straight Bore Hand Slide.  Slide is very smooth despite a small area of inner chrome wear.  This valve system is a major improvement over the standard model offered by Conn-Selmer today.  Rotax is the same brand valve used by Edwards on T396A Alessi model.  As an independent set-up they play very easily and even.  The balance (release) on this set is about as good as it gets.  Would be a great bass for a classical trombonist.  Original case included.
