I've owned several of these and their top piston brethren (sisteren?).

They are "OK" you can pick up a King 1241/2341 in similar condition for around that kind of money (or 15% more if in a hurry) and IMO the Kings are far superior.

Yep agreed, this horn gives off that Conn vibe or maybe a student holton. Probably would be "Ok" if you need something to practice on .
