Smith-Watkins K2 Cornet 

 

 

This cornet comes to us on consignment and is a wonderful player. The K2 is a very versatile instrument and is great for a multitude of styles. It excels especially in British style brass bands. This horn has seen some use including a bit of plate wear particularly on the typical contact points of the instrument. There is also some minor denting on the main tuning slide, 2nd valve slide, and leadpipe. the leadpipe does present some signs of red rot and will need eventual replacement. Beyond this it is a great playing cornet and would be perfect for a student looking to upgrade or a comeback player. Pick this horn up today!

From Smith-Watkins

 

The K series gives the same ease of playing as the G series, but with a mellower sound.

Due to their versatility these are a popular choice with Soloists and Tutti Cornet players. 

A slightly larger pipe. A good all-round pipe, ideal for Soloists or Tutti players

and suitable for use in ensembles of all sizes.

 

This horn comes with a case and mouthpiece
