Anyone familiar with the Wessex .547?

Post by MrLong »

I’m interested in a straight, affordable .547 and have had my eye on Wessex’s for a while. Has anyone tried this horn?

I've played other Wessex 547 horns, and they were really solid. Somewhat Bach-ish if you need a reference point.

Straight (no valve) .547 horns can be had for dirt cheap. You can usually find 8Hs or similar horns for $1000 or less.

If you're in the market for a cheap .547 send me a message... I've got a Texas 70s 88H that I'm going to post for sale pretty soon.
