"Once again, if you want a perfect top quality mint condition trumpet, please don't bid on this one. If you (or your children) want to learn how to play accordion or want a beautiful decoration item, this is perfect one for you. Measurments: 19" long x 7.5" wide x 5" tall. "

Fascinating. I wonder how he thinks it'll help with accordion playing.

Almost makes you think of someone scratching their finger nails on a chalk board.

No respect Indeed!

well, here is the accordian, just a sloppy cut and paste job, but at least the background is a bit more pleasing.

but what is up with the coke can? Is this one of those product placements where this seller will get paid by coke for each time this page is visited? or is this so we will know that these are full sized instruments... bigger than a can of coke.

...of the accordion player who stops for a drink and leaves his beloved instrument in his car. Whilst sipping his beverage, he hears breaking glass. Fearing the worst he dashes to his vehicle and peers in to find...two accordions.

Why are we even discussing this on a trumpet related website? Don't you folks see that this is really a trombone? Just check the item listing!

Must be the Conn Short Trombone: you remember they made the Long Cornet, which looks like a trumpet, too!
