I really like these old Cleveland horns. I've had a few through here but this is the first tenor and its just a great horn. This one is from the 50's and its in darn good shape! Most of the lacquer is there, hardly any dents, the keywork is smooth and the pads are older but it plays great up and down. These horns are a great value. This would be King's answer to the Martin Indiana or Conn Pan American, "student" horns that were really very similar in body construction to the pro models of each company. Of course these "student" horns of yesteryear blow alot of modern horns out of the water! I'm thinking whoever ends up buying this horn is gonna be happy for a long long time.
