Very rare Conn NY Symphony special trumpet. The best of the best for its era and highly sought after today! The serial numbers are hard to read. Nice compression and valve action. The main tuning slide has one knick on the inner tubing edge. It has one, small patch where the bell meets the valve block. It’s very well done and hard to see! This needs light restoration before it’s a lead player again. This is priced to sell! And a fine playing horn as is. I estimate it needs an hour of shop time.. This trumpet comes with a newer, double poly style hard case. Vintage And a buescher MP. The finish is original but warn. I can’t see ant sighns of old repair work! First best offer &####128077.
The Conn 22B is one of the best horns ever made! The Special models are considered more desirable due to being held to extra high standards during production. We’ve known many professional players who say the Conn 22B, sounds the way a trumpet should sound. Over the years we’ve played a lot of these, and we only bought and kept the good ones. This one has some red rot in the leadpipe, however we chose not to fix it because it plays great and the red rot is mild and usually takes decades to work it’s way through the leadpipe. The bell engraving is particularly crisp on this horn, it’s hard to find one of these with the lacquer this well preserved. The pictured original Conn case is included. The case has typical wear due to its age but is in good shape. The latches and springs are functioning perfectly.

Vintage King Super 20 Symphony SilverSonic Trumpet. Small dents on main tuning slide, as seen in photos. Looks like a slide puller was used a little too aggressively. Other than that, horn is in fantastic condition. Sterling bell makes such a nice tone! Case has some scuffs, and signs of use, but nothing major, and nothing that affects usability. No key for the locks. Please feel free to ask any questions. This item is in the category “Musical Instruments & Gear\Brass\Trumpets”. The seller is “bookshepherd” and is located in this country: US.
