[SOLD] FS: Meinl Weston 2165 CC $10,500 OBO

Post by steve_vaughn »

Horn has been sold

I am selling my lacquer 2165. Horn was purchased in 2016 in "demo" condition from Buffet Group. From what I was told this may have been the last 2165 made, but I am not sure of the exact age of the instrument. Lacquer is in 100% minus the area where I changed the leadpipe (see pictures). Aside from some minor scratches and dents in the bell (and one on the back side of the bottom bow) this horn is in mint condition. All slides and valves move great.

I have a custom made by Martin Wilk 45slp leadpipe that I had put on the horn by Daniel Parker at CIOMIT who did a really amazing job. The leadpipe is floating and the response of the horn is really great because of it. I have the stock leadpipe that I am selling with the horn. PVAK system is on the valves and valves 1,3,4 are vented. Also comes with a mint condition cordura Chronkite gig bag.

Horn is located in Denver, CO and I am asking $10,500 (OBO) + shipping for the horn, stock leadpipe, and gig bag. I would be willing to drive out somewhere to meet halfway to avoid shipping the horn. Email or pm is good (Steve.h.vaughn@gmail.com" target="_blank). Thanks for looking!

This is a VERY good 2165. I had this exact horn in Miami for a few months while I was between FL and NY. It is flexible, and has an amazingly even sound throughout all registers. Someone will be getting a great 6/4!

I think this horn would do well at Horn Guys, Baltimore Brass, or Dillon Music as it's condition and price lend it well to be on a store's floor where traffic will allow players to play it and get it talked about. Not to mention, they get a lot of traffic that never makes its way here, and there is a certain amount of confidence that people shop with at those places that can't be matched with most private internet listings.

Best of luck!
