Hey all! I’m looking for a replacement lever (trigger) for a Conn 72H.

Lorenzo,

I replaced mine with a Bach trigger many years ago. I might still have the old one in a junk bin somewhere. I will need to look. Do you need the saddle and hinge screw also, or just the lever itself?

I was picking through the spare parts bin this morning and could not find that old 72 lever. I'm thinking that I might have sold it a few years back. It is the same part as the old 88H lever and there are likely a lot more 88H players that have a spare one sitting around. Best of luck in your search!

Does it have to be original? Crazy is probably correct that an old 88H lis the same as would any trigger lever off of an old Conn. Me personally i would just replace it qith something modern.
6H (K series)
6H (early 60s)
4H/5H custom bell
78H ('53)
78H (K series)
78H/36BG /2547 slide
8H
88HN
71H (dependant valves)
72H
35H alto (K series)

John Sandhagen would probably have your parts. You can probably find him in the membership list. Email me if you can’t find his info. BTW, I like the original Conn trigger set up!

The lever is the same as an 88h from that era. That should be pretty easy to come by.

Hi Lorenzo,

I do not have that trigger lever any more. As I was searching through my parts bins, it occurred to me that I sold it a few years ago. Still, if you put a "Want to Buy" add in the classifieds, there should be someone out there with a spare 72H or 88H lever.
