 | Conn 5A versus 38A I have tried a 1962 Conn 5A cornet. A 1967 one is seen at The Conn Loyalist I have never played a 1962 Conn 38A Connstellation cornet with Coprion under the nickel. A 1966 non-Coprion one is seen at The Conn Loyalist If anyone here has played both, please compare the following for me: Restriction - Does the 38A feel more open, require more air than the 5A? Tone - Does the 38A sound more Teutonic or more mellow than the 5A? Any other comparisons you might want to add? - Morris Last edited by screamingmorris : 04-06-2008 at 01:45 AM. |

| Re: Conn 5A versus 38A Quote:
I'd hate to bid on one and then find out afterward that it is more free-blowing and Teutonic than the Conn 5A I already have. My son thought about buying one a couple of months ago and I had hoped to try his out, but he didn't get it so I never had the chance to try one before buying. I should probably just wait and get a late 60's Olds Studio cornet, if I can ever find one I can afford. It would probably have the perfect bore size and tone for me. - Morris | |
