New Horn!

[sunburstbasser]

So finally, after a decade of playing on sub-par horns (ancient Conn 20B and a Bach TR200) I ordered a nice horn.

I got a Kanstul 1600 WB.

Mine will have the same finish as this one, but with a first valve hook and a Bach-style 3rd slide stop. This picture doesn't show it, but the 1600 comes with a Bach-style squared tuning slide, and I ordered mine with a Schilke-style round one.

It'll be here in about 6 weeks. I can post real pics then.

Looks like a good horn. Kanstul makes some good stuff. Congrats!

Congrats. I hear good things about those. Post a review once you get it.

I plan to review it for sure!

I ordered the horn from www.pickmusic.net. GREAT place! Lon and PC were great to work with. They only carry Kanstul, and only the trumpet lines, though. Some of the best service I've ever had, though.
