As an attendum to my last post, I just picked up , from Craigslist locally, a really nice 73 Olds Ambassador cornet, deluxe case and Bach 5C and Olds 7C (soon to OLDLOU) for $50. Better than average lacquer, valves and slides. Used minimally as a school horn. Plays very nice. Interesting to compare with my others. I played it for several numbers at concert band practice last nite and was happy with the results with the 5C.
