Although I am really a large-horn player, I do a lot of pit orchestra work. Quite frequently the books I play have a few oboe bars in them. For this reason I thought having a C soprano would come in handy. That’s why I had toyed with the idea of getting one of these babies for about 5 years.<\/p>\n

Then in January 2020, I took the leap and bought this Conn New Wonder Series II C soprano from my bass and vintage sax buddy, Paul Lindemeyer. Sadly, 2020 was of course the worst year to buy a horn to actually USE for a job… Oh well, I never said I was psychic. <\/p>\n

I don’t know how long Paul had had this particular Conn C soprano, but he did tell me that he had never gotten around to getting it overhauled. It had been in his storage locker in the condition he got it\u2014unplayable. Since I now work for my tech<\/a> as his Education Rep., an overhaul was really not problematic. So we agreed upon a price, and the little C soprano made its way to me. <\/p>\n
