To the Conn Lovers

Martin Williams · 10-09-2006, 11:21 AM

Ive got two vintage Conn trumpets, that sit around mostly collecting dust. I would like to have them go to someone who can do something more with them, even if that is to just display them so others can admire them.

the first one is a 1925 22B. This one is actually in decent condition, good valves but not the prettiest. Its a relaq, buffed, and there are obvious repairs(resoldered bell brace) It plays fairly well.

The second one is 1926 26B, in silverplate, tarnished, and worn in the places you hold the horn normally. This one needs some valve work to play like it should, but the valves arent to bad. On the main tuning slide the knob works that changes tuning (i believe from Bb and A)

Let me know if you, or anyone you know is intrested in these horns, I'll let them both go to the first person to send an offer my way for one or both of them.

shoot me an email if you're intrested
