Fellow colleagues, Here is a great example of why to be careful when using ebay. Check out item # 7321051354 Conn 8D read the write up carefully and then go to their feedback and check out the item they bought #7310468415 Conn 8D
Read their comments about the bell, and then look closely at the engraving, it is close, but not the same as on a C series 8D. They make it sound like they found it in excellent condition--"exceptionally well cared for" "sharp engraving"--verses the original description when they bought it--"bell completely shot." Although the sellers state that the horn is totally restored, their implication is that the horn is all original and that the bell is original. Draw your own conclusions about this. This is an example of what to be careful of when buying a horn on ebay Paul Navarro Custom Horn _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
