Ive decided its time to let this horn go to another deserving player. The horn originally belonged to Karl DeKarske. John Noxon had John Sandhagen over at The Boneyard work his magic on the horn. John found most of the bits needed like the male/female slide tenons, slide crook, hand slide braces. Mr DeKarske had a hacksaw and wasn’t afraid to use it… I fashioned the F lever, made a new brace tube receiver, got new Conn tubes, and put it all together. I gave John a Bach 50 short leadpipe… Similar to what was in Bob Olson’s Williams. This also took over an inch out of the horn… Probably was sharp and not much tuning slide available. I went with everything Williams that I could… I think the reason that people put the Conn levers on was the ergonomics… I tried to make it similar to a Williams, but adjustable and easier on the hand. The horn will also come with a set of different Kanstul leadpipes. They are: UL, L, H, and 169. I currently have the horn in a King case which suits it quite well and will be included if desired.
