Re: Conn CC 3J - 5 valve

One thing I've learned is to never say never. In 5, 10, or even 20 years you may say, "I really miss playing tuba" and it will come back into your life. You may not believe it or see it now, but it can, and probably will, happen. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't sell your horn and all of your mouthpieces, you can always pick up another in the future, but keep an open mind. Good luck with your sale, and with life after the storm.bilgeratsmarina wrote:due to the financial strains of college, and now, hurricane katrina, i'm selling my Conn 3J.
the horn is a smaller 4/4 with a large bell flare (19" i believe). the body is laquer and the bell is silver (you may remember this horn was on dillon music for a while). it has a custom added 5th valve, and a leather collar protector. there is some laquer wear around the bottom, and a 1" scratch on the bell. the scratch is the only wear that is on the horn from when i bought it. i paid $3800, but because of this 1" scratch, i'm asking $3100. also included is an alteiri gig bag.
i know you always hear "my horn is magnificant, blah blah blah." but this horn does play in tune, and has a large sound for it's size. i'll even throw in a never used heavy wall mouthpiece; hell, ill give you all of my mouthpieces if you wish (im never going to play again).
please feel free to email me if you have any other questions, or would like pictures. if a buyer agrees to my price of $3100, i'll pay for shipping. otherwise, let's talk.
thanks
