1917 Conn USQMC Double-Bell Euphonium $1750 *TRADE PENDING*
Posted: Wed May 30, 2018 10:34 pm
UPDATE 6/4/18: NOW OPEN TO TRADES! Will trade in a heartbeat for a beat-up but playable Eb tuba (would prefer 4 valves), but will take all interesting offers into consideration, just send me a PM!
Make: C.G.Conn Ltd.
Model: New Wonder (?) Double Bell (built for USQMC)
Valves: Good compression and smooth action with regular oil, plating issues on 2nd and 4th (doesn't affect playability), otherwise very good. 4th valve button is from a 1919 Conn sousaphone, according to my tech.
Finish: Satin+Polished silver, averages 6/10 (missing in some areas, decent everywhere else). Bell engraving 90% crispy.
Dents and Dings: a few, nothing that impacts playability
Tune to A440: Yes, every slide except the 3rd was cut at some point previous to my ownership
Location: Fremont, Ohio zip code 43420. I can ship to the lower 48. If you want to pick it up in person, you can do that too.
No mouthpiece, case, or gig bag is included. Will be packaged well if it is shipped.
Price: $1,750 plus S+H to lower 48 (if shipping is desired). Click HERE for pics!
If you have any questions, just ask!
