I have an old Geo M bundy trombone in great condition. I have yet to hear anything about them. I know that Bundy made saxes starting in the mid 20`s but I can find no info about the trombones. Any help would be nice. Thanks

Geo M. Bundy actually stands for George M. Bundy that who was a clarinetist and helper of Alexandre Selmer who started the American Selmer Company. Alexandre left America and went back to France, and left the management to George M. Bundy who later became the President of H&A Selmer, Inc. Geo M. Bundy is what the model was called. But in the 20`s, it was common practice for companies to order instruments through other major manufacturers and have their own name put on them, these were called "stencil instruments". American instruments tended to be Conn, Bueschers, and Martins. They could have been sold by selmer, but have been made by another company. Geo M. Bundy`s were mostly clarinets or Saxophones, but they sold brass instruments as well.

I hope this helps, anything else i can help yah look for, dont hesitate to ask.
