Thoughts on the value of 3 Mark VI horns
I'm trying to get a good idea of the worth of 3 horns that I might possibly be selling. Any input would be great.
Mark VI alto, #58,XXX - in great shape, overhauled 18 months ago, laquer is maybe %70 in tact, all original, just with typical wear and tear of a well used horn. It has a few modifications on palm keys and right hand side keys (build ups - can definitely be removed with a little work)
Mark VI tenor #77,XXX - This horn was purchased brand new in the late fifties and was only played lightly for three years or so, hasn't been played since except when I tested it out recently. It looks almost brand new, has blue S on the neck, original laquer 99% in tact. Needs tune up and new pads and you'll essentially have a 3 year old Mark VI.
Mark VI tenor #139,XXX - same situation as the other tenor, I purchased it from original owner who bought in '66 or '67, played it for a couple years and never touched again. I've had this one overhauled about a year ago, so it's in great playing condition. Also has a few build-ups on palm keys and right hand side keys from when it was overhauled.
Also, I'm looking for a King Super 20 alto, so if anybody has one, let me know.
Thanks.
