Wow!!!~

Very Nice!!!!!

@FranklinD Yea..sorry I have an 11C4 shory and an 11C4 long.

And I meant to say "MP" (mouthpiece) not "MB". I had an 80A..I didn't care for it. Maybe bc of the large bore.

After much deliberation I finally bought a 184G Silver Strad Cornet. Did not do enough research though to realize the bell is brass/gold. Supposedly a richer sound. Glad it did have that.

Initially the horn was "harder" to play as well as my old Conns (Im a Conn fanboy). But I do like it. It came with a deep cup MB (Bach 6A) i am using my 14C3 Yahaha. I bought a 14E3 (deeepeer cup) but I still like the Yahama. It is fairly Bright and really projects. I do prefer darker. But since it I am in a band it is probably needed. I may pllay around by adding a pad in each valve to misalign the valves and make it slot less.

I paid 1200 including tak and shipping. It has a few dents and the bell was repaired. But I'll take the $2100 savings. Anyone else have one?

@adc Very nice

I'm here. Maybe bc of the holidays.

What model/year is it?

Very nice!!!

@Kehaulani
It seemed it was close to a bach 8 1/2Cbut for me played a bit better. Its all I use now. I have a short shank and medium shank one.

@Bob-Pixley
Yea thats what I (and everyone else ) played back in the day (10 1/2 C). Grabs high notes but I found an 8 1/2 C better and finally went to a Yam 11C4
