Post by J Stowe »

There's a clear difference between being old and being beaten up.. Can you really sell something like this? I mean, come on?! But hey.. What do I know? :evil:

So how does a Pan American sousie compare to a 14K?

I dropped a message to the seller of the slide-less horn and he responded with two messages:

1. I DON'T PLAY-TEST THESE HORNS

2. SOLD AS-IS

I guess someone told him it played okay. :?

I always laugh when they refer to valves as keys. :lol:

Maybe there are three keys that lock the case (is there a case?) :oops:

:shock:

I use a Pan American bell on my 14K Frankenhelicon/sousa. Seems to me the sousas are pretty much the same.
