Thank you for viewing. This is a CONN 8B, which I used as a sub after purchase. Based on the serial number, it appears to be from 1972. (From the C.G. CONN website, "R" prefix) It's a masterpiece loved by jazz giants such as Lee Morgan and Freddie Hubbard. I am selling it this time because I am focusing on an early Elkhart Bach. I've had it for six months since I bought it, but the previous owner had it thoroughly adjusted at the Juji-ya store in Kyoto, so the condition is quite good. They explained the adjustment points in detail and had it adjusted accordingly, so the level of completion is very high. It's incredibly easy to play, and the condition is top-notch. There are some scratches and signs of aging, but it can still be used for a long time. The airtightness is also good. CONN pistons are a bit heavy, but they move smoothly. (I use PDQ valve oil) Most of the 8Bs you find on Mercari or Yahoo Auctions are in poor condition, but this 8B is in excellent condition and ready to play, so I highly recommend it. You don't often come across an 8B in this condition, so if you're looking for one, please consider it soon. I will use a Bach hard case and wrap it securely with air padding to prevent any impact during shipping, so please rest assured. I will only consider price negotiations with those who express a serious interest in purchasing. #trumpet #trumpet body #trumpet #JAZZ #CONN #8B
