Artikel: Conn 6M VIII Ladyface

General description : Here we have one of the pre-war 6M VIII models with serial 285471, build early 1939. The 6M VIII model was introduced early 1937 and has a slightly different neck compared to the standard 6M. Highly sought after, as these 6M´s are supposed to have the best intonation. A pristine example is hard to find these days. This one most likely has the original lacquer, with only light wear on body and keywork. It has a unique original look. The Ladyface engraving is in perfect condition and crisp sharp..

Condition : This horn is in great shape. No damage, dents or repairs. All locking screws and original amber rollers are present. The pads are in great condition: the horn was overhauled a couple of years ago and hardly played after. Neck is original (with the VIII stamp) and has no pulldown. The microtuner works great.
