Nice vintage trumpet by Conn the 77B Connquest model Bb Trumpet designed as an intermediate model during its production from the 1950's through the 1970's. You gotta love the old school Conn design of wide width tuning slide and bell crook curves. Features a medium-small .438" bore, I replaced the damaged leadpipe with a new one, buffed up raw brass and flaking lacquer, new felts and corks on the valves so alignment is correct and other tweaks and adjustments to make this feel and play well for a 77B Connquest back into the game of making music again. When I found this one it did not have a case or mouthpiece so I found a Conn case probably 70's or 80's vintage and an older Conn 4 mouthpiece that would of been standard stock issue with this model back in the 50's/60's when Conn first released this model. If you're seeking a vintage axe on a budget this is a pretty cool find.
