Conn 20J BB-flat Concert Tuba Elkhart H-series 1966 -
Price:
$1,750
Location:
Sodus, NY
Description:
There are lots of Google returns for the Conn 20J. An outstanding concise description might be discovered at: http://20j.marchingsoutherners.org/history.htm. This is a major show instrument with a 24-inch detachable recording-style bell. A very heavy horn. It has its share of small damages, but plays effectively. All valves and slides work fine. This design, while a 3-valve, is known for having sonorous and very strong 'false' tones, or pedal tones, down to the depths. The Elkhart years made up the splendor age for Conn. Lots of uncommonly desirable instruments from that duration. At the minute I have no idea where my tuba mouthpieces are (after a relocation to Sodus), so bring your own mouthpiece to honk on it. There are three strong black tough cases with it, blue felt-lined, one for the removable bell. These opt for up to $3,500 on eBay and in other places, with all damages refinished and got rid of. However my experience has actually been that tonal character and playing characteristics can change when rubbing down to refinish a brass instrument. I purchased this instrument from an older lady in the Brighton suburb of Rochester, NY. She apparently had enjoyed something of a solo profession on it, prior to my time. She was the initial owner, and definitely had actually never ever refinished it-- no need! I'm a trumpet gamer and one-time brass instructor. Although once or twice I carried it down to Glenn Call's TubaChristmas at the old Midtown Plaza in Rochester, mostly I utilized it simply for short demonstrations in my studio.
