I will be offering for sale a vintage 28D at Bloomington. I can send you
more info on mine if it would be helpful. Depending on the price and
condition you may want to grab the one you played. Even if it needs work it
could turn out to be a good investment. The serial number on mine is l
The other mistake is it, to place the microphone direct in the way of
the sound wave, so every click or snore is heard, instead of placing it

And what might one expect as tone quality coming from a kid
I know exectly what you'r talking about. I've recorded myself many time

you use. Professional recordings are done with very expensive equipment.
There are various kinds of microphones with different characteristic

Hello, unnamed. This ist he usual shock, when one listens to ones own
playing the first time. It sounds horrible indeed. And, after 1 1/2
years you are still a beginner.
But you have understood ONE important fact: you are self-critical. That
is good.
Tone ? Attack ? Well, it seems you use too muc
Do not think too much about different muscle actions or feeling tired at
a different point of your body. Remain PATIENT. These kind of things
take a bit time. The more you think about the change, the more it will
take to be adjusted.
Or, as an alternative: just go ahead & play as before, but with
Thank you all for your replies.
This 28D has no visible serial number. I looked for one on the bell
throat. I also did not think of checking the end of the leadpipe for a
model number. I thought the yellow brass 8D's were 8DY's. It has
mechanical valve linkage in the trigger but not like the new 8

I'm normally just a lurker, but I have a couple of pressing questions

Dear Horn Gang,
I am currently selling a Brand New Conn Detachable Bell Flight Case that
