The 14D Director French horn existed from 1954 to 1978 and from the early 1980s to the present.Īccent trumpets and cornets early on had valve blocks of the type used on the UMI-King 2055, but in lacquer finish instead of silver. Stencils, such as early Accent student trumpets and cornets and Hohner HT 1000 trumpets, will be mentioned, but Conn stencilled very little after the 1960s. Cross-brand models like the Bach CR301 and 182 Stradivarius, made in Eastlake, will be sorted at a later date as well. Newer additions to the Eastlake factory, like Holton, will be added at a later date.

Intermediate models here are considered student-quality horns with features not common in student horns, like red brass bells, thumb saddles, etc. Pre-1990s Connquests are usually regarded as slightly higher quality than intermediate models from the 1990s, so these Connquests are considered basic-pro.

Elkhart models with confirmed production into 1971, the year the Elkhart plant began closure, are included for completion's sake.Ĭolor coding: student models in red, intermediate models in purple, basic-pro models in blue, and professional models in black. Conn was sold to MacMillan in 1969, so there is some overlap of the Elkhart brasswind models and their successors from Japan and Abilene, Texas.
