I have a 1961/2 connstellation 38B trumpet that i would like to swap for another trumpet. it has original lacker and in excellent condition. serial number is  977857 if u are interested let me know. open to offers

thanks mark

yes it plays beautiful. have been playing for 19 years and although im at a good standard i think it would be better in the hands of someone who appreciates it a bit more. like i said its in very good shape and original lacker. not sure how much it is worth. i tried to upload a picture but it wouldnt let me.

I would check the web site "Conn Loyalist."  it is run by a very knowledgeable person and I think you could get some very good advice--especially if you post the pic.  Don't be surprised if you are over-run by offers.  This horn appears to be an pre-UMI vintage and can, as I said before, be highly desirous, as these horn are becoming quite scarce and yours, at least on sight, look very well preserved.

Good luck!!

According to one of the posters (Schwab) on a US based Trumpet Website (TrumpetMaster 2007) they "normally go for $5 - 700 on eBay".

There is currently one going for $1000 with 0 bids.
Looks a pretty good instrument!

Kind regards.
