Came with stock mouthpiece. Valves are very good horn is in excellent shape for it's age. It just needs some new corks, probably some tighter springs and I think she's good.
But man I think this horn plays a bit stuffy. I'm new to horn again after grade school, now 40.
I am always hearing about people getting a deal on an Ambassador, but it was finally my time. I looked at a few being sold in the 100-150$ range and I just refused to offer that.
These are great horns if you find a good example. Finally I lucked out and got one.
Since it was only 50$ I am thinking of doing the leadpipe modification and calling her good. |
