FS: Conn 56J CC - $4,995 **SOLD***

Post by JPLynd »

Just putting this up here to see what I might get for it. To be honest, I'm very happy with this horn and not in a huge rush to sell it, but wouldn't mind trading up to something a bit larger.

*Update for additional context why I'm selling*

Bought this horn used from Dillon about a year and a half ago after playing on rotary horns for the past 8 years. Gave it a little over a year to adjust, but miss the rotary valves. For those who prefer pistons though (which I understand is basically everyone else...) this is a great horn that definitely punches above its weight class.

I've already found the horn I plan to upgrade to, just need to sell this one to supplement what I have in savings :-)

2 or 3 VERY minor dents that are purely cosmetic. It was chem cleaned about a year ago.

Horn is located in NYC - would prefer not to ship but open to it. Buyer pays shipping.

Keep it - it's so beautiful to just look at. With something like a Dillon Roylance or Olka, I'd bet it would sound plenty big.

If only you would wait and post this around tax refund this spring. I am going to buy a Conn CC and 5k is the budget. I would have bought this ASAP. Dang it.
