    1953 CG Conn Coprion Cornet.
    Howdy, I have a 1953 CG Conn Cornet for sale. It has the Coprion bell and sounds amazing! It has definitely seen some action as it’s a diamond in the rough, as you can see from the photos, but you can’t beat the sound, which is all that matters. Beautiful engravings on the bell. I don’t know who played this thing, but it could’ve been Nat Adderley, Ruby Braff, Bix Beiderbecke, or Louis Armstrong. It’s a great little horn and will definitely get conversations started. I did a blindfold test against my 00 Getzen cornet and my piano playing brother couldn’t tell the difference. It’s a nice horn, great for players of all skills. There are scratches and places where it’s worn, which is expected from a horn of this age, but nothing that affects the playability. Valves are fast and slides work great. Comes with new Gator case and a mouthpiece. Too many horns, need to sell a few. Thanks for looking.
