3 valve Holton with detachable recording bell

Post by mbeastep »

This instrument is in very good condition and plays with an appealing sound and outstanding false tones. Asking price is $2000 Canadian, or about $1600 US. I believe the horn dates to the 1950s. Two solid cases are included for the two parts of the instrument. To see some rather fuzzy pictures (my fault), go to http://shifting.shifting.ca/Holton
The instrument was successfully used by a local dixieland player and has been well treated and well played. Contact me for further information.

Yes, the picture is reversed. My apologies. It appears that my scanning is just as bad as my photography. This is a right-handed horn. It would be a nice instrument for somebody.
