Conn 79H Rose Brass Medium Bore Vintage 1972. This is a smaller version of the classic 88H. Has 8" rose brass bell, with traditional wrap rotor, and .522 bore handslide, take small shank tenor mouthpiece. Made in 1972, right after the transition from Elkhart to Abilene TX, you can tell by playing this that it is made with Elkhart parts. Is in great condition and has had full shop service including chemical bath, rotor service, and slide set-up. No issues with playability. Great handslide. Plays dark and warm plus will brighten up when pushed the right way, similar to an 88H, just a smaller bore. Ideal choice when full .547 isn't needed, like pit orchestras, shows, small ensembles.
