1977 Los Angeles Benge Bb cornet SN 24158

1977 Los Angeles Benge Bb cornet 

     This is a 1977 Los Angeles Benge bore cornet in excellent original condition.  It has a medium large bore and a #3 bell.  

All slides are smooth.  Original silver plating is excellent and engraving is sharp and clear. Valves are in excellent original condition with great compression.  Any distortion that appears in the photos is due to lighting reflection.   The only flaw that we can find is a single pin point dot of red rot on the leadpipe that is located between the second and third valves.  It can be seen in the photos if you look close.  

These cornets are somewhat rare and this one is an excellent example of the quality produced by Benge in the 1970's.  

Comes in the original case in excellent  condition. 

 No mouthpiece is included.
