This professional Paxman 20L model has recently recieved a valve rebuild, providing excellent compression and action, and an ultrasonic cleaning inlcuding new strings and bumpers. Apart from expected wear at hand-contact areas, this horn is solid and ready for many more years of performance, and a flipper was added for best ergonomics. This is also an early version of the Paxman 20 built with a slightly wider F branch tubing bend, built in Gold Brass, and paired with an L bell or "Large" bell taper. This results in a horn with a large sound, rich low range, and smooth and controlled feel between the F and Bb sides. Includes a used briefcase-style case.
From Paxman: "The Paxman Model 20 is the flagship of the Paxman range. It is a completely original and unique design that is built around the Merewether system which allows the air to flow through the valve section in the same direction on both the F and Bb sides of the instrument. This minimises airflow disruption from the turning rotor and enables characteristic smooth slurring and legato playing on both the F and Bb horns, and when changing between them."
