1958 Selmer Bundy
---- SOLD -----
This horn has been around. But it plays as good as ever. Valves are fast (I dare say these valves are as fast as a getzen), compression is great. A great backup or student horn. I removed all signs of corrosion and stripped much of the original lacquer, so the horn is mostly, but not all, raw brass. This is the kind of horn that plays better than you expect it to.

Acme Master Cornet
- Acme was a stencil name used for York Instruments.
- This horn is, in construction, nearly identical to the York Feathertouch Cornet. Valves have patented feathertouch spring design.
- Refinshed to raw brass with original nickel accents.
- Note the rose brass bell
- Cosmetic condition is 7/10. Horn has several dents. Nickel plating flakey in places.
- Playing condition is 5/10. Valves don't stick but are sluggish. Slides work but are slow.
- Horn was heavily corroded upon receipt. Chemical bath helped quite a bit, signs of surface red rot removed, but this horn will require some regular maintenance to keep that at bay
