I have had 5 King Flairs.

That tells you how much I liked them.

John Sheets plays one now.

I found it to be a very good solo horn in big band use.

They have a great edge to them and a very bright and brassy sound.

I am, of course referring to the old horns from the 60's and early 70's.

I would not even consider an newer one made by UMI.
