FS: Elkhart Conn 6H
Posted: Thu Nov 09, 2017 10:30 am
I'm selling my horn to finance another purchase. I've had this Conn 6H since about 2005. It's a late 1960s model with 8" bell/.500 bore.
The slide has been modified to take Shires & Kanstul threaded leadpipes. Mike Corrigan (BAC) did the work. There are a few scratches, and a spot re-lacqer (oversleave was resoldered), but otherwise this horn is in fantastic condition for its age. The pics should show any major blemishes. No dents. Slide recently back from Mike. Perfect. No wear. Plays best with more open leadpipes than original, in my opinion. Slots well, very nice lively sound without being too bright. Can bark like a conn if needed!
