Description
C.G.Conn 88HNV trombone
As a homage to the vintage Conn 88H, the classic sound and feel of early Elkhart models were combined with modern-day features to create a stunning example of balance and beauty. The 88HNV rejuvenates the iconic vintage-era trombone starting with the traditional rose brass bell, which is modeled after the bell weight from Emory Remington’s original 88H.
The unique valve wrap provides the balance and feel of traditional vintage models but utilizes a modern approach to the open wrap design. This helps to create an evenness throughout the entire range. Other features include an updated valve lever and rosewood thumb paddle, creating a more ergonomic feel.
The stunning new engraving weaves through four eras of Conn history. The chrome-plated nickel-silver handslide tubes in combination with the standard rose brass outer material provides a warm resonant sound and smooth action. The 88HNV is coupled with a modern style lightweight case featuring a slim profile, elegant design, and stowaway backpack straps.
