Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2018 7:31 pm Post subject: Info on a Jerome Callet Sima |
|
|
Wasn't sure if this belonged in horns or here, but since most people in here probably own one of Jerome's horns I thought I would try in here. I just purchased a very nice used Sima and was curious if there was any way to figure out the year of its production. The serial number is in the 443xx range. Does anyone have a ballpark for the year or know of a SN list? I'm guessing 2010 or so.
Speaking of which, is there a "Callet Loyalist" site out there or anything like that? _________________ My Gear |

Your presumption is that those avenues haven't been exercised and exhausted. And regardless, neither of those provide an online repository of data, a registry of owners, independent forum, etc. such as those available to Benge, Buescher, Conn, and a number of other manufacturer's devotees. Further, in the case that such a site is available, there is no need to waste the manufacturers time with an email when it's easy enough to piece together the answer. _________________ My Gear |

Congrats, you have an excellent horn there. Expect many compliments from listeners out front.
I don't know of a list for each serial number, but the Simas (a .453 bore) were made 2008-2013. In 2013 the Sima was replaced by the .460 NY Soloist. |

Thank you for this useful post; much appreciated!
Update: Someone with a serial number within 5 of mine messaged me to say his was from November 2009, so that's good enough for me. _________________ My Gear |
