Silver and Brass Music Shop is a brick-and-mortar brass instrument restoration and repair shop located in Carson City, NV. For more information about our business, please feel free to visit our Ebay Profile at http://www.ebay.com/usr/silver_brass_music Here is a 1947 Conn 36A "Concert Grand" (Serial Number 370180). The bore of the horn is Conn #2 bore (.468"). The bell is 4 5/8". Here is what Conn said at the time: "The 36-A Concert Grand cornet was designed expressly for the band and for the cornet soloist. Built in .468" bore, it is easy to play but has a surprisingly big tone. It is short and wide, affording a comfortable hand hold and giving perfect balance while being played. The long, uninterrupted sweep of mouthpipe contributes to the accurate scale and easy response. The bell has a large throat which helps give the round, full mellow tone that distinguishes this model. It is amazingly flexible in both upper and lower registers. Clickless Crysteel valves. This model, priced so economically is destined to become one of the most popular models Conn has ever built. Built in Bb and A." This horn plays very well. As for the aesthetic condition of the horn, there are small dings and pings throughout the horn. The bell engraving reads “C.G. CONN LTD./ U.S.A./ ELKHART. IND”. All this is visible in the pictures, and none of it affects the playability of the horn. This instrument has been professionally cleaned in our shop and repaired to full playability. This horn is not lacquered; therefore fingerprints should be wiped off after use if the player wishes for the horn to stay as shiny as it is now--if they are not wiped off then the horn will develop a lovely patina. This cornet comes with a somewhat worn case and a mouthpiece in good condition. All horns are located at Silver & Brass Music Shop 710 N. Curry St. Carson City, NV89703(775) 691-9737
