Complete. Could be reassembled(or for parts). Have the other two finger buttons not pictured. I was going to fix this one up but I gave up on that bell, for the life of me cannot get it back together. The valve block pretty much just fell off when I got it. Previously a school horn long forgot about and then given to me along with three others. Pictures show most of everything. Body and bell mostly dent free. The silver underneath all that dirt and tarnish actually seems to be in good shape from what I can tell. Any questions reply or pm.

Info on bell; Came apart sometime in the past and was “fixed” by I assume the director where they put the tail of the bell tenon through the front of the flare and then used something(no clue what) to weld it together. It’s not solder. I got it apart but by them doing that it warped the connection point more than I care to bother with.

No clue what to sell it for so send an offer(if that’s not allowed, let me know and I’ll make up a price)

Local pickup Prairieville, Louisiana.

That looks just like the Pan American sousaphone I turned into a helicon. (Which I still have the bell for, if anyone who buys this is interested).

What's the bore on yours? Mine is 0.687. Plays very nicely!

Good luck!

Likewise on the (probable) Pan Am with a (later) Cavalier bell. If anyone ever wondered what a hybrid Conn/King would play and sound like, this is the souzy.
