Conn 79H Medium Bore Tenor. Vintage Elkhart, IN 1970. Conn Closed the plant in Elkhart and moved to TX. This is one of the last Elkhart Made 79H's that we have seen, it has an "N" Serial Number. All orginal parts and lacquer. This horn has been played quite a bit over it's life, and plays better than ever. The lacquer is OK but not perfect, some spots missing, yet all original. We did a full shop service, including chemical bath, rotor service, and pro slide set-up. It's a real player. Has a yellow brass 8" bell, unsoldered, just like the 78H but with an F attachment. The handslide has a .522 bore size and takes small shank mouthpiece. Hanslide is straight and smooth, a small amount of plating loss, which does not hold it back in anyway. This slide feels very good to play. Includes an early Protec case in very good condition. In-stock for immediate delivery.
