Is the 6D now made in China or still by Conn here in the USA. I played a 600,000 series Elkhart 6D for years and it was just fine? In a message dated 5/4/2008 12:53:42 P.M. US Mountain Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
Mr. Weiner makes a good point. I doubt that the manager of the Han Brass Works thought that after watching re-runs of Baywatch he could hoodwink gullible Westerners with crappy copies of brass musical instruments. I have private students playing on these junk horns supplied by indifferent importers and cheap school administrators. These are not "student horns". They are junk and fit for wall ornaments or target practice. This includes the Conn 6D. I imagine that the Chinese could reverse engineer a working horn, trumpet and so on. What would be their impetus? These people are not ignorant. I doubt that an intelligent businessman would risk sustainable profits on a whim. Some Westerner bankrolled these operations and are exporting these instruments to the west.
