#1958 olds cornet series#

All Conn cornet mouthpieces built before the 'Improved Precision' series (ridge), such as the 'Precision' series (no ridge) are short shank mouthpieces. The 'Improved Precision' Conn mouthpieces such as the Conn 4 are long shank if there is a 'ridge' halfway down the shank, and short shank if there is no ridge (in which case it is a 'Precision' mouthpiece). All of Conn's 'Connstellation' cornet mouthpieces are long shank mouthpieces. The long shank cornet mouthpieces won't properly fit a pre-1958 Conn cornet and won't give the proper intonation or playing characteristics of a short shank cornet mouthpiece. It was thought that the slightly flat Eb and slightly sharp D and C# were within the abilities of the player to lip into tune.ДЄs far as I can tell at this point, all Conn cornets built before 1958 take a short shank cornet mouthpiece as opposed to the 2Вѕ' 'Bach-style' long shank cornet mouthpiece. On these older cornets with the longer third slide and no finger ring the Eb is a bit flat and the D and C# are slightly sharp, but not as sharp as they are on later instruments. On modern instruments the low Eb is in tune, but the low D and C# are quite sharp. I have learned that the third slide, without the finger ring to adjust the pitch of a low D and C#, is slightly longer than it is on modern instruments. At first circumstantial evidence suggested the 34A was called the 'Symphony Grand', but the 1954 catalog lists it as the 'Concert Special'. The models of those I have seen are engraved '12A' on the bell, so are classified as '12A' and not '34A'. Occasionally you see what appears to be a 12A with a red brass bell, as opposed to a Coprion bell. The 34A doesn't appear in either the 1950 or the 1955 catalogs, but it is in the 1954 catalog. As far as I can tell at this point these were only produced for a short period in 19. But I have received proof that this is in fact called a 34A: a picture of the underside of the mouthpiece receiver with '34A' clearly stamped on it. Essentially a 112A (see separate listing). Check out the photos, then pick up a piece of history! Conn Loyalist says:ДЄt first I thought these were 12A Coprion's with a brass bell. There are a couple other small dings on the horn that may not warrant repair. There's also a small crease in the bell and a small crease in the bell tail. The initial section of the leadpipe has some bending to it. There are a couple points on this horn that you may wish to repair. Valve compression is good with a thicker oil like Berp #3. This is a fun horn to play and it has a nice tone.

Check out the angles on the knuckle pipe from the tuning slide into the valve block! This cornet also has a tall valve block with bottom sprung valves. The design of this horn is all brass with nickel trim. Conn has made a TON of cornet models through the years, and this one is super rare! The 34A was only produced for about one year in 1953-54.
