| Re: 1923 Conn
I have a Conn cornet from 1907 and a Holton 1917. Ignoring some of the intonation problems, I prefer the sound of these old axes to any modern cornet I've played. When playing them I like to think I'm paying homage of sorts to the skilled people who made these horns, all of them probably gone by now. Corvallis, hmmm? I live up the road off of 99W. Any jazz jam sessions going on in your area?
