Description: 1940s ALLMEN Trumpet .460 step bore NY Bach stepbrother....great lead horn!!! IF SHIPPING IS RIDICULOUS CONTACT ME FIRST>>>>THE EBAY CALCULATOR IS USUALLY WAY OFF>>Karl Allmendinger was the Bronx factory foreman....these horns are made from NY Bach valve sets with different bells/leadpipes....share the NY Bach dimensions which are different than later Mt Vernons......460 ML bore....horn has a great lead sound, cuts like crazy!!....to me the bell looks a little throaty at the end....to me more focused than the holton horns, closest i could come was a bach 72 but this one more focused than that too.. later serial number so possibly late 40s into early 50s.......i goofed....had the wrong tuning slide......460 in the whole horn.....horn has a great lead sound, cuts like crazy!!....to me the bell looks a little throaty at the end....to me more focused than the holton horns, closest i could come was a bach 72 but this one more focused than that too.. cut in on the lower tuning slide outer tube like a french besson..... pro level....nickel outer tubing......h......that's the advantage with older horns....the metal from back then was definitely different....they can copy designs all the manufacturers want but they can't replicate the raw metal....valves have little or no play in them, very tight....slides all work good, has a 3rd dump slide....a few pings here and there, no major damage present...i did have to resolder the top 3rd slide tube....had come loose...so it's as clean as i dare, don't want to over buff the knuckle....you have to look to see it....horn is polished raw brass...i will come up with some 3rd rod nuts, can't remember if bach fits these ...maybe have to be some conns.....i'll provide a case for transport.....if you don't need it shipping will be less....it's had a chem and ultrasonic cleaning, new felts/corks......
