![]() ![]() Egger reproduces the decorations of the original on this instrument, lots of hand engraving and stamping. The bell is hand hammered, brazed and finished by scraping in the traditional way. On the MDC model, a special alloy "Nuremburg" brass is used. This model is based on the Sebastien Hainlein sackbut from 1632. $1995.Įgger Tenor Sackbut, Model Hainlein (1632) MDCĮgger makes some of the finest historic brass instruments in the world, this sackbut is a work of art! The MDC model is the most authentic replica Egger offers and I will highlight some of the notable details that make this sackbut so special. It does have some wear and small dings and scratches from use as well as mild wear on the slide stockings. The sound is crisp and bright with a symphonic character… it is an ideal principal trombone. Looks very similar to a 78/79H but has a slightly faster bell taper to my eyes. ![]() It features a gold brass 8" bell, bell tuning and a wide medium bore slide with bronze outer tubes and a nickel crook. It looks like a small 88H and has a hand bent F attachment wrap in that traditional closed wrap. This particular 80H also comes from my collection and its the latest I've seen, being made in 1949. I personally collect 80H trombones and my 1940 version was custom made for Simone Mantia of the Metropolitan Opera and used by him until he retired. They are very rare as only a handful were made. 525" medium bore trombone developed in the 1920s and featured a unique bell taper, tuning in the slide and an 8" bell flare. A super rare Elkhart Conn, this is a model 80H (also know as the New York Symphony Model). ![]()
