 | Interesting King serial number issue My silversonic cornet was sold to me as an early 70's model and it came in a 70's style King case, but the serial number 363*** seems to be from 1955-60 according to the lists I have seen on the internet. I don't know King instruments at all so can anyone identify its age from looking at the photos: Gordon Hudson: My King Silversonic Cornet It does say HN White on the bell and Cleveland and it is quite heavily engraved. |
