I'm the original owner. This is an awesome small bore (.500) jazz horn with a red brass bell. It's a true pro-level gem of a horn for a lead player.

Inner slide tubes were replaced by Getzen during a complete factory refirb, and played little since.

Lacquer is 100-percent. Slide is a 10/10. Small dent ding in bell, as pictured.

Sale includes:
- Getzen-branded hard-shell style case in like-new condition
- Leather Specialties hand grips and neck guards in perfect condition
- Schilke 51C2 mouthpiece, silver-plated in excellent condition

$650, shipped (CONUS).

This is a steal for a supremely nice, pro-level, small bore straight horn. It's a fantastic every-day player; every bit as nice as Shires or Rath for a small fraction of the price. I'm selling it because I simply don't play it any more, favoring my .547 born tenor for the type of playing I do. It's an awesome horns with amazing response, effortless slotting, and a warm/dark sound (due the the red brass bell). This horn will not disappoint.

Sale pending.

You knew you shouldn't have waited, and you were right!

See my two other horns that are still for sale.

I have one of these and you are right - fantastic player!
I don't see any markings on mine indicating the model number. How did you identify it as a 950R model.
Thanks,
Cush

Youre right, theres no model number on the horn, but, Im the original owner. This was my first pro-level horn, so of course I remember the model number. At least I think I do. Mary Rima at the Getzen factory would know for sure, if you cared to reach out to her, and share the pics.

Let me know if I was right or not, if you do contact her.
