| Matt Wilson mwhornblower@gmail.com | Lawson Double asking $8,000 OBO  | Made by Walter Lawson in his Boonsboro shop. This horn has an amazing high range and very consistent intonation. It has a nice warm sound but the lighter metal also gives it more flexibility in tone color. In very good shape with some lacquer wear. Comes with a Lawson Nickel Bronze bell unlacquered. It might not be the best for someone on the audition trail, but this is a wonderful horn. Perfect for any serious player. It is lighter metal than the original Fourier. Asking $8,000 or best offer.   |

| Rowan Queathem queathem1@grinnell.edu 641.275.1586 | Elkhart N series Conn 8D – asking $4,000 | This instrument is a special find — I was VERY lucky to find this horn used around 2007-2008, and I played it for about 10 years and got so much joy out of it. It has a rich, dark, warm sound and plays beautifully. I just got it professionally cleaned and it’s in great condition, considering it was manufactured sometime between the 1930s and 1960s. I will also throw in a mouthpiece, leather hand grip, a well-padded hard case, and a mute. Please contact me if you’d like to try it out (text or email). Nickel silver, #N45252   |
| Paul Smith psonline@me.com 651.442.8590 | 1950’s Kruspe (Horner model) in top shape with excellent compression for sale – asking $3,900 if you’re a local buyer! | I am selling my lovely 1950’s Kruspe (Horner model) and would like to give our Twin Cities Horn Club members the first opportunity to buy it before I list it on the IHS site. I bought it from the original owner who purchased it in New York. This horn is in top shape with excellent compression. I’ve enjoyed how it produces a glorious rich sound especially in the lower register but is also able to sing brightly. I will be listing it for $5,500 on the IHS website but am hoping this fine horn will go a local hornist. A newer horn case is included. I can bring it to a TCHC rehearsal or get-together if you’d like to try it! |
