Pass! They aren't so rare that you have to buy one that looks like it's been run over by a truck!! How (and why?) would somebody wreck what was once a beautiful horn..........(shaking my head sadly).

I used to own a Balanced Selmer. A really nice horn. It is sad to see one that is basically destroyed. It wouldn't even make a good lamp.

I would have paid $150 for it. It was a three digit selmer balanced model. It looks in bad shape, but it was fixable. It was missing a piston, but that could be made.

Gentlemen:

Find the degenerates responsible for the damage on this horn. Send them to me. I'll guarantee that they will quickly become candidates for the soprano section in The Vienna Boy's Choir.


What a disgrace!
