[Trombone-l] Conn 10H

[Eric Edwards]

The Coprion bells are pure copper and are made by plating the copper on a
bell shaped mandrel instead of the normal method of making a bell.

I can't help you much with value, but the 10H is the Coprion version of
the 6H (.500 bore). Coprion is different from rose brass, and I'm not sure
of the process exactly, but there's more copper than in red or gold brass.

There's a Canadian jazz artist out of Montreal who plays that horn and
loves it - he sounded terrific on it at a local club last year.

I'm sure others will be able to fill you in with some more specific info.
