I recently came across several horns being sold locally. As a favor for the seller, I want to post information about them here. I took a look at them the other day and only had about 10 minutes but here is some info.

1. Conn Monster Eb, 3 front action valves, silver, 20 inch upright bell. Valves measure 20mm in diameter for the ports? Valves look good and move fine, slides need to be pulled. Finish is really faded, didnt see any holes or any dents, looks great, big sound. Huge Eb really, 37 inches tall.

2. Beuscher Eb, 3 valve top action, silver, 19 inch bell. Valves move fine and look to be in good shape, the buttons are missing. This horn needs some fixing, bell rim needs to be rolled, horn plays fine, but would be good for a project horn or salvaging the bows and bell. It is also about 37 inches tall, just as big as the Conn Monster in the bows.

3. J.W. York and Sons, its a small Eb tuba, but somehow plays in Bb? I dont know much about it, but the exact same horn is for sale in about the same shape on ebay right now....http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... eName=WDVW

4. They also had an old J.W. York and Sons Cornet with Shepards crook in silver, valves worked, but I dont have more info.

If you have any questions feel free to ask me and I will forward them on to the seller. I can try to answer some of the questions. Pictures can be made available from seller.

I do believe the pricing is "open offers being accepted, the horns need to go" type of situation...
