Vintage King Cleveland 600 Trumpet - Best Kept Secret: Awesome Sound: Sweet Axe

Description

Up for your shopping pleasure is a fantastic 1967 King Cleveland 600 trumpet in lacquer. What a versatile trumpet!!! This horn can do it all.....best kept secret in trumpet land. Now, King has made many fine trumpets, but don't confuse this horn with the Tempo or Superior or King 600. The "Cleveland 600" is different.
I have played on many Olds Ambassadors, Conn Directors, Yammies, plus many others, and this trumpet kicks butt. This Cleveland 600 does not play near as dark as an Ambassador and not as bright as the Yamaha. When pushed, she can light up a room. With a .462 bore, she can take all the air you can give her.
For the money, you will not be disappointed with this horn. You can use this as a backup horn and if need be, she can gig too. The compression is excellent and all the slides and valves pull effortlessly. I did not find any dents on this horn, but there are some scratches on the finish. And, there is a slight bend on the bell flair end. Looks like about 90% lacquer remaining. Trumpet comes with a older Benge 7c mpc. I just cannot say enough good things regarding this King Cleveland 600 Trumpet. This horn is for sure the best bang for your bucks.
Thanks...
