[Features]
Tenor trombone with the emblem of Leisel, a German general musical instrument trading company that existed before the war, affixed to the bell. After the war, the company handled exports and sales of Mirafon, Cherveny, Roland Meinl, etc. Before the war, it seems that the company sold OEM products with its own plate pasted on them, like Carl Fischer in the US. The trombone in this shipment was probably manufactured by a German brass instrument maker at that time (probably Monke or Kuhn). It is not like Kruspe's Weschke model which was made in the same period.It is not a figure "C" shaped bell-crook, but it is the same as the Weschke model made in the same period.Fixed typeThe slide also does not have a tuning tube. The specification is the same as the Weschke model, which also has no tuning tube on the slide.
