Rare 1929 Buescher Flugelhorn s/n 2447XX, Outstanding condition with case. The bell inscription reads: The, Buescher, Elkhart, Ind. It also has very nice engraving of the school name that was done before the plating went on so it would have been done at the factory. It was a very wealthy district back in those days and they bought a whole fleet of Buescher instruments that were all custom engraved. The silver plating is in very good condition. Originally, there would have been gold wash within the engraved areas but most of it has worn off, just a hint remains. There are dings and nicks all over but nothing that would really qualify as a dent, except the 2nd slide has a patch with a dent in it. All the slides pull easily and the valves are smooth and fast. The pistons are solid nickel silver, not plated. They have the usual tarnish. The original case is in good condition and all the latches work. It has the brass Buescher badge on the outside. Has a (0.460) bore. The bell size is 5 7/8. Original silver plating , pictures show condition only minimal wear! Horn was recently cleaned with dawn dish soap. Valves have buttery smooth action and good compression. Slides have excellent movement and are air-tight. M atched up with an outstanding new 1.25 Flip Oaks (extra deep) Flugelhorn mouthpiece, easy upper register! Horn has a quick response and the mouthpiece provides a fluffy sweet mellow tone, (easy to get around on). Excellent intonation, and even scale without a trigger.
