Please help identify my Conn trumpet

blackmonjr · 07-12-2006, 03:44 PM

I am attempting to identify, date and appraise my Conn trumpet.
It has the following inscriptions:
On the bell: "CG Conn Ltd USA" and "SS" below that.
On second valve: "0045"
On the leadpipe: "c"
From what I have researched so far, I believe it is a Severisen model from the mid-80s, but I can't get anywhere with the serial number. Any help would be great.

I do not know if this will help but I have a Conn trumpet from the mid 80's and it is a Conn 1000B Doc Severisen model. It is gold laquar(sp) with a rose coloured bell. I have not been able to find out anything more about the models either. If there is an S in front of the serial number I believe it means it is a student model.

There were also some Severisen model made # 100B which I think were all silver. Hope this helps.
