1946 Gold Plated Full Pearls King Super 20
What is there to say? These horns a true rarity. Not many people have seen a Gold Plated Super 20, so I feel extremely lucky to have been entrusted to rebuild this one. And it was a big job. In the end I fabricated 8 new oversized hinge rods, increasing from .106" to .1093". I made 3 new screws, the G# adjustment arm, the Low Bb roller screw, and a new key guard screw. I made two new post sleeves, and 7 hinge tube extensions. And it was all so worth it. After the last Zephyr rebuild I did, which I declared my new all-time favorite, this horn here has toppled it from that mantle. Wow. The pictures don't say it all, it has to be played of course to really experience it. But they will have to do, so enjoy them. See the whole gallery here.
