Selmer Chorus 80J SN/ 86137 Lacquer W/ Reeves PVA

From the HornTraders Quiver! You Can’t get these anymore (SHAME on SELMER) Originally selling for over $4000  Selmer quit making these fine horns in 2011.  The HornTrader has 5!  It is time to thin out the herd! These are terrific horns I have 3 in my personal quiver and love it especially for small group jazz settings.  It plays great! This is in the lacquer Finish.  Lots more pictures upon request. The Bb trumpet ‘CHORUS 80 J’ has been developed from the original ‘Chorus’ model in conjunction with international artist Guy Touvron. More particularly jazz and light music orientated, its great versatile qualities will also tempt many classical trumpet players. Considerable work has been put into finding a correct mouthpipe/bell flare match, by modifications which, though they may seem details, add to the overall quality of this model (oversized bottom valve caps, shifted tuning slide crook). An easy and centered tone production, a good general open feeling, especially in the hight register, and a great flexibility make the ‘CHORUS 80 J’ effective in various music settings.  Recent Chemclean and valve Alignment from Bob Reeves.  There is some lacquer wear, but no dents/dings or trauma.
