Each consignment horn that we sell is thoroughly tested by our staff to ensure that you are receiving a quality product. These are the thoughts that were shared by our staff:
In good overall condition, it plays well and the rotors have great compression, and is has been de-lacquered at our shop ($500 service). Common with used horns, the slides are worn, it has a handful of well-done solders, and there is minor push-in on a bell brace. It plays well with standard rotor oil and thicker slide grease, with a clear tone that projects well. A great option for an player looking for an affordable double horn!
