cdm Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) New start up corps is looking for contras/tubas. 2-3 valve G horns are desired, but they will consider valve rotor. Let me know if you have some. They would prefer matching horns, but that isn't a deal killer. Edited February 5, 2015 by cdm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrassshop Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 you are better off going Bb the G horns are very far and few available and Bb are in supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayfallon Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Isn't there a set of Olds Ultratones with the Kanstul valve cluster on the DCP Marketplace? They're decent - good instruments. Don't use the valve rotors. Too noisy and you'll #### off a good player with them. BTW I'm not disputing the response that says go to the Bb. Just that I saw these G horns recently on DCP.

If Gary's horns are in decent shape at a decent price, they're pretty good horns - they're not Kings, and they're not Kanstuls, but they play better than a lot of what people were playing on (even in the top 12) toward the end of the G period.
