This instrument is in superb condition, and plays better than it looks. This horn comes to us on consignment and has only had one owner. The only signs of use on this instrument are some minor scratches in the finish and a few barely noticeable pings in the bell. Beyond these minor cosmetic blemishes, this is a gorgeous instrument that needs a new home, pick this one up today!
From Conn Selmer:
"The Conn 8D French horn was borne out of the collaboration between powerhouse horn-playing brothers Arthur, Jack, and Harry Berv and the innovative engineers at C.G. Conn, Ltd. Introduced in 1938, the Conn 8D cemented the tradition of large bell, all nickel silver, Kruspe-wrap French horns in the United States. Quickly becoming the instrument of choice for the Cleveland Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, and the New York Philharmonic, the sound of the Conn 8D has also been heard by billions of people worldwide in Hollywood film scores."
