£1,950.00

 

 

 

 

 

OUT ON APPROVAL

 

 

Maker: CONN

 

 

Model: 28D (post Elkhart)

 

 

 

Type: Full double in F/Bb

 

Alloy: lacquered yellow brass

 

Bell flare: fixed

 

  

Visual / cosmetic condition: good, with some lacquer

 

wear in the expected places, and also where

 

the detachable leadpipe system was installed.

 

 

Valve compression: very good

 

Water key: conventional type, on the leadpipe.

 

 

More details: A very good ‘post Elkhart’ 28D

 

with a nicely secure and 'slotted' high

 

register.

 

Furthermore, it displays all the other Conn

 

virtues: a potentially large sound, a wide

 

dynamic range and a superb legato.

 

 

Its leadpipe is detachable, via an

 

ingenious system similar but not identical to that on

 

Holton's Models 104 and 105.

 

 

Although a 'professional quality' instrument,

 

it is also listed in the 'intermediate' category,

 

owing to its 'below £2000' price.
