Greenhoe Conn 62H

Post by meine »

Hello everyone,

I recently borrowed a Greenhoe Conn 62H from a collegue and found 3 stamped numbers on the tuning slides of it. Does someone know if these numbers are the serial number of the horn?

Thanks in advance!

Probably production numbers to make sure the exact tuning slides are used for the horn.

The serial number is stamped on the main bell cross brace, just above the F lever bridge.

Conn sent a large batch of those cross brace tube assemblies early in the Conn-Project timeframe. They were not sequential, and serial numbers were not tied to any particular build date in any way.

I don't remember stamping individual slide numbers like that, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. (That shop closed almost 10 years ago, and a lot has happened since then.)

My Conn/Greenhoe 88HTG has a 96 stamped on the tuning slide and a number that ends in 96 on the front bell brace. The front bell brace number would be the serial number.
