This horn is in INCREDIBLE condition and is the finest kept example of this series of horns that I've ever seen! This is not a refurbished horn but one that has only had one owner(prior to myself) that purchased it new in 1969. These horns are sought diligently by today’s professionals as highly refined tools of the trade. The people creating these horns had evolved from mere manufacturers, to artists of instrument creation. The latter years when the Conn factory was located in Elkhart, Indiana represented a golden age of Horn manufacturing.

With a bit of oil, the valves spin properly in the first and third casings, but not the second. The second valve casing is out of round, which was the problem with the horn, and some of the valve slide attachments are damaged. The valves come with plenty of green crud, and one stop arm screw and one string set screw are missing. These valves were removed from the horn many years ago when I performed a"valvectomy" on a broken down old Conn 4D to create a basic natural horn to fool around with. Three valve casings, three valve caps, three bearing plates, three stop arms, two stop arm screws, and two string set screws. The photos are of the item being auctioned. Here is a set of rotary valves from an old Conn 4D single F horn. Professional features in an instrument that is easy to control. One of the best values in the double horn market.

The 6D is one of the models I highly recommend for advanced student and adult musicians. The Conn 6D and 8D French Horns have long been the standard for advanced student and professional players. Everyone has always been extremely impressed with his work. I have personally used this company for over 8 years for my band members and myself. The refinishing was done by a respected local shop with over 40 years experience in woodwind and brass instrument restorations and repairs. A new deluxe Conn case and a mouthpiece are included. The valves are excellent with new strings and bumpers. Dents removed, polished and a beautiful new baked epoxy lacquer finish applied. CONN QUALITY WAS AT IT’S BEST IN THE ORIGINAL ELKHART FACTORY! The French Horn has been completely restored. THIS IS ONE OF THE GREAT VINTAGE HORNS MADE IN THE ORIGINAL CONN FACTORY BEFORE CONN WAS SOLD AND PRODUCTION WAS MOVED TO TEXAS.
