Conn 38K Sousaphone Info
Posted: Sat Jul 23, 2011 5:46 pm
I took an old Conn 38K Sousaphone in lieu of money owed to me thinking I could donate it to my school and have it PC'd for a couple of hundred (2 yrs ago). After the repair guys worked on cleaning it for a while they discovered that it would need the valve section replaced due to exposure for it to play properly. I just closeted it because of cost. After reading about 38Ks I would like to see if anyone would be interested in buying it. I don't really know what would be a fair price. I would appreciate any knowledge imparted my way about this dilemma. It needs a good cleaning and polishing. Most of the silver looks to be there. No large dents. It does not appear to be abused except for being left out in the weather.
