Hey all!
A
fellow TubeNetter sent me pix of his horns to post here.
Their stories as related to me: The smaller is a Buescher Monster Eb from 1925 that's been revised. Next to it is a York from 1910 that was cut from BBb and had a new valve set installed. Great looking instruments!

Dillon's did the York conversion, and Joachim Wirsching in Germany did the Buescher.

Beautiful work, but why is the mouthpipe so low on the big York? I would find that very uncomfortable, and lots of guys are taller than I am.
