Sanders Artist?

Does anyone know anything about this horn? The seller says it's a Bb.

Looks like a Cerveny 686 in CC to me. Sanders was used as a stencil brand for Cerveny. A BBb would have a longer lead pipe and dogleg after the valves. To my eye, at least.

The linkages are post-1990s ball-and-socket Cerveny parts. Again, to my eye.

Here’s a comparison pic. Yours is missing the fifth valve, obviously, which defines a different wrap for the first valve tubing, but I’m 99% sure that’s what it is.

Being from Kentucky, they actually offered to make me a Sanders Colonel.
