Hi all-
I have a couple great old Mirafones in my studio this week.
1965 186 CC 4v
1961 186 BBb 4v
I'm having a lot of fun playing them - both remarkable instruments.
Thought the Mirafone fans might enjoy some comparative pictures-
cheers
-Jim

The first horn I owned was a 4-valve 186 CC from 1977. That was a great horn.
Good lookin' pair you've got there!

I thought that looked familiar...
Will be soon adding another vintage CC Mirafone from '62 ( not a 186)...
