Here is a vintage (serial number K35333) Conn 6D Double French Horn. This instrument was built in Conn's Elkhart factory, is in good playing condition and plays very well. The valves move well with very good compression and the slides all move of course. As for the aesthetic condition of the instrument, here there are some problems. There are a few dings and pings, and consistent scratching and pitting throughout the horn. There are also some brazed repairs to the bell throat, all around the bell near the main bell brace. All this is visible in the pictures, and none of it affects the playability of the horn. This instrument has been professionally cleaned in our shop, and repaired to full playability. This horn is not lacquered; therefore fingerprints should be wiped off after use if the player wishes for the horn to stay as shiny as it is now; if they are not wiped off then the horn will develop a lovely patina. This instrument comes with a somewhat worn hardshell case and a mouthpiece in good condition.How the horn plays: Full, bright sound. The tone is smooth and warm. The Bb and F side timbres match well, with the Bb slightly brighter. The horn is responsive. The low and high registers speak well. The horn has a very good dynamic range.All horns are located at Silver & Brass Music Shop710 N. Curry St. Carson City, NV89703(775) 301-6289
