FS: Elkhart Conns, 8H & 88H

Post by ttf_BiggieSmalls »

1957 Conn 8H in fine playing condition:

https://santafe.craigslist.org/msg/d/conn-8h-1957-elkhart-vintage/6453847504.html

Slide has been professionally set up, and the action is very smooth in spite of minor Connwear on the inner sleeves. No slide lock. Evidence of dent removal in the bell throat and flare, and some pitting around the handgrip area. The tuning slide has been overhauled and looks like new. Not a beauty queen, but she's a great-playing classic that's far above utility grade. No case. $1250 shipped to CONUS only.

N series 88H circa 1970, with original case:

Very smooth slide action, yellow brass outers with clean inners. A few dents in the TS and minor dings in the slide crook. Some dent removal from the bell throat, but never folded or rolled out. Some pitting and lacquer loss around the handgrip area. This horn is a real joy to play, very even and balanced, with none of the nasty F# resonance so commonly found in some of the earlier 88H's. $1550 shipped to CONUS only.

Please contact me through the Craigslist mail relay, or feel free to call the number in the ad.
