1922 Conn 86i euph - horn dorn

Post by jonesbrass »

I thought I'd share some pictures of my all-original 1922 Conn 86i euphonium. Satin silver plate and bright gold wash bell. It is all original, but of course has some wear on the valves and on the first valve slide. Overall a great horn to play, and is pretty to boot. Sometime soon hope to get it to Andersons for a valve rebuild.

Nice horn. Aren't those things FUN? A fellow doesn't get much of a challenge with regular tuba parts. But... pick up one of those horns and a tenor sax, clarinet, or trumpet part... and net the notes fly!
