Nice rotor setup!

Those fingerbuttons don't look Conn. More like Holton or King. Nonetheless... I have a can of spares. Do you know the thread size?

Hope this helps. They are not very descriptive about what the "Special Edition" fits but it wouldn't hurt to call them.

Interestingly enough.... I had a Conn 4J on the bench this afternoon... serial number 7692XX... that has 8-32 threads in the valve stems. I have every reason to think the horn is original.

Dan,(from an old thread)
The Conn 4-J was built with Old's parts,hence 8/32. Same as my 2-J.(Not 3-J or 5-J)
