Remember Trapper on MASH?

[Bobalonia]

Hello all
I wonder if anyone has a guess what size Trapper John on MASH played?
Gotta be a tenor or bari I think
To me it looks like a Baritone but sounds like a tenor.

Now there’s a man who makes no apology concerning thumb placement on fretting hand

I wonder what he will say when playing a long set with his wrist angled in an unnatural way? I know how my wrist aches when I don't make sure my thumb is on the back of the neck.
