I got a Benge 190 (cosmetically rough, esp. dings in the bows) for $20 at a church rummage sale. It was marked $40, but as I walked to the cashier they announced that, effective immediately, everything was half off.

That Benge, BTW, is the closest thing to a 'holy grail' I've ever encountered. It is a perfect fit to my playing quirks. I've never found another horn I can play as well on. I'm even unwilling to take the risk of having the dings removed from the bows. Looks like heck, but....

Joe Baker, who wishes he played tuba as well as trombone.
