King Liberty Trumpet Bb/A 1945 - Reconditioned - Case & King M18 MP - $400 (Rifle)
QR Code Link to This Post
Lovely playing horn with Bb/A capabilities, all slides are marked for A tuning. This is one of the few Liberty models that has come through the shop without having difficulty removing the tuning and insert slide. Horn required light dent work and shows well with 60% lacquer and blemishes and scratches. Compression is good and all slides move nicely. Original case is solid showing wear in and out, latch springs aren't working but the case does latch and hinges are solid, horn comes with a King M18 mouthpiece.
Most sellers here and elsewhere are selling used and most likely dirty instruments that were stored wet and uncleaned. A little valve oil and slide grease does not make them playable or ready, playing an uncleaned instrument is truly gross. All of my horns are completely reconditioned and detailed, this is $150 service which most used horns will need. A basic clean will not remove mineral deposits, all my horns get acid baths, honed valve chambers which are finished with hand-lapping (A $50 service on it's own) and tested. All horns have a 1 year warranty and free repairs for a year as well.
I have lots of trumpets ready to play! Starting at $150 for starters with plenty of vintage US built student models. All instruments guaranteed with warranty.
