For sale here is a used Olds-P16 jazz trombone.

About the history of this great instrument:

Frank Ellsworth (FE) Olds was born in Medina, New York in 1861.

After working for Conn for some time, he began selling trombones in his own business in 1912.

Among the most famous Olds employees were Foster Reynolds and Zig Kanstul, both of whom were successful instrument makers under their own names.

The most popular Olds trombone models include the "Recording", "Super", "Opera" and the "P-22".

The P-16 was Olds' answer to Bach's legendary Model "12".

This instrument was built in 1978, a great year.

What distinguishes this professional Olds jazz trombone:

  • Warm jazz sound, great feedback from the instrument.
  • Brass bell, yellow brass outer slide.
  • Chic "Custom Crafted" engraving.
  • This instrument has a cylindrical slide with 12.7mm / 0.500" diameter. The bell is 191mm (7 1/2")
  • Built in 1978, freshly serviced by us, ready to play.

Condition of this Olds after intensive inspection:

  • The train runs fine. No loss of chrome. Some dezincification.
  • The tuning slide is freely movable.
  • The paint shows signs of wear.
  • Felt stop is available
  • With "Olds" counterweight.
  • The handles are in good condition
  • The instrument has recently been overhauled and is now in perfect playable condition.
I am a professional musician myself and have tested this trombone thoroughly and found it to be flawless. That is why we offer a 2-year guarantee.

Accessories included:

  • The instrument comes with the beautiful original wooden case from Olds.

Recommendation from me as a professional musician:

  • Very solid premium jazz instrument at an affordable price.
  • I recommend Olds Slide-O-Mix Rapid Comfort as a lubricant.
  • The instrument should be cleaned regularly from the inside, e.g. with a Reka care set.

That's why Elbblech - safety, quality and guarantees:

  • 30-day return policy.
  • 1 year warranty, 2 years guarantee
  • Free shipping and returns
  • If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message or get in touch.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is it possible to play the instruments in the store?

– Yes, during opening hours or by appointment in our shop with workshop in Mölln.

I have no way of coming to Mölln. Can I still play the instruments?

– Yes, that is possible. The easiest way is to place a normal order. Then you have a 30-day right of return after receiving the goods and can test the instrument at your leisure at home, in class or at a rehearsal. Shipping and returns are free for you in Germany anyway. If you still don't want to order, please contact us and we will find a solution.

Who is behind Elbblech?

– That's me, Felix Eilers, a professional trombonist and managing director. Instrument maker Danilo Neun works in the workshop and in sales in our shop in Mölln. We are also supported by our partner workshops "Trompetentobi".

Is it possible to contact you by telephone?

– Yes, please feel free to contact me via this page if you have something to offer.

Are the instruments delivered with a mouthpiece?

- New instruments are always delivered with a mouthpiece. Used instruments are not, in most cases. We have a large selection of mouthpieces and are happy to advise you individually when purchasing a mouthpiece.

Are the instruments playable straight away?

– As a rule, all instruments are serviced and/or serviced in a workshop. I only sell instruments that are in such good condition that I would use them professionally myself. If an instrument is not immediately playable, I write this clearly in the item description.

Do you also ship outside of Germany?

Yes, we have been shipping worldwide for many years.
