Dave,

Thanks for registering here and posting!

I'm sure folks will be contacting you for advice, and I'm sure I will too!

I hope you'll lurk here often and share advice with our fine members about their vintage horn questions, especially about the King instruments.

The original H. N. White company made some absolutely gorgeous instruments in their day, and the company prided itself in putting out a great product. The engravings on their fancy variations were second to none.

I remember seeing a pristine Master cornet from the 30's with full engravings (done in silver w/gold highlights) that someone would almost kill to get! What a gorgeous horn!

Keep up the great work . . . and welcome aboard!

Sincerely,

Tom Turner
