I bought this horn at least 10 years back on ebay from a brass shop in Nevada. I have enjoyed playing it often but am in need of vehicle and home repair funds more than too many flugs , trumpets and cornets. It is a custom built homage to the Martin Miles wrap flugelhorns of the 60's 70's. It is composed of a Couesnon France bell and a vintage Olds valve body and slides configured into the result you see in the photos. Valves have good plating and compression and all slides are free. It is raw brass and plays very very mellow. It takes cornet shank mouthpieces. No case or mouthpiece. Please view the many photos. Carefully packed and promptly shipped to lower 48 ONLY... fedex ONLY!! No P.O. boxes please.
