FS: Conn CC w/ 5th (formerly owned by Jim Self) SOLD
Posted: Sun Nov 13, 2016 8:24 pm
I've had a lot of recent questions on if this horn is still for sale, so I'm starting a fresh post...
I am helping a friend sell a very nice/rare small Conn CC 4 Piston, 1 Rotary. This horn was previously owned and played regularly by Jim Self and before that was played with the Utah Symphony by the original owner.
It was purchased from Jim in the late 90s around 2000. The 5th valve was installed by Larry Minick, and let me just say, you'd never know the horn wasn't built with it (works great, with excellent intonation)! I've had a few opportunities to play the horn and find it fits very well with brass quintets, especially those that enjoy playing a small CC tuba in quintet. Very easy to play and great intonation in all registers. Owner is selling only because it is not getting played enough.
Silver finish is still great and there are very few minor dings along the back side bottom. It is located in the Cincinnati, OH area. Seller is asking $4,000, which includes a wood hard case and older gig bag. Please feel free to email or message me anytime with questions, thanks!
