Are you sure it's a baritone? Definitely looks like a "horn instrument" to me


Yes, it's a Dynasty M371 marching baritone in G, actually. Compare pics:

The seller is an infrequent user of this board; he may chime in. Straight shooter, nice guy.

I think we are allowed to say "Eastman" on here. :laugh:

DonO. makes an excellent point about demo horns. I got my 832 CC as a demo horn from Dillon back in 2022 and ended up paying out the door something like $5k.

Just FYI to anyone in New England, Jim Engele from Osmun Music has started his own concern and so far it has gotten some pretty good reviews from local folks. The big news is that they are doing valve plating. Currently only set up for small brass and rotary valves, but within the year they are ...

Looks a bit crunchy in spots. Lots of patches and the bell rim looks like it's disintegrating. This music store is somewhat local to me (about 50 minutes away) and they occasionally have interesting, if slightly overpriced, stuff. I'd bet they'd take an offer.

I like this version a bit better than the version on the record.

The record is interesting, but IMO some of the artistry is a little obscured by the hokey/somewhat rinky-dink backup band. Lots of xylophone!

This was a dance number we played - which featured a lot of key changes to extend it, but check out the key we started in:
