CONN 15J

Post by Brassdad »

I don't know much, but seems affordable and certainly there are folks here who could help with info or maintenance...

Good horns. Note that Conn no longer builds this model and only has limited parts availability. What Conn/Selmer/Steinway/Whatever calls a 15J these days is actually a King 1240. Ordering parts for a 15J will get you the wrong parts. If you buy this horn and need parts.... I think I have two parts horns. And no... the pistons won't interchange with the 4J or 5J.

This particular version of the 15J is/was a convertible horn. Swapping the leadpipe for a marching pipe and reversing the 1st and 3rd slides put it into marching configuration.

BTW, Brassdad.... you made a double post. You might delete the OTHER one to avoid confusion.
