I have a King Legend 2070 ML that is almost the same instrument I read somewhere and the Conn Vintage One should be close too. It is an instrument that I'm attached to. Yet it has some shadow sides. It feels open and sounds big nearby but in reality it projects moderate, it's rather dark. It makes it easy to play full soft melancholic phrases without any vibrato (good for certain film music ) and it's flexible and the scale is very even. I use the MV weights too to make it even darker so it blends very well with the amateur symphony I play in. The intonation is good but above the staff it depends on which mouthpiece you use, I noticed. Open high register but too dark to say it's just perfect for lead trumpet, I think, although that depends on the player of course. So perhaps well suited for jazz and film music?
Jean-Pierre De Vent -If the Lead Player can handle a larger bore, it can do really well in a section. I sold this horn and almost forgot about it to be honest. I’ve moved on to some better things.
I saw this video was 4 years ago. Have you sold this horn yet?. Im currious to know how much those horns run. My grandfather had a nice custom conn trumpet. I didnt get it passed down to me when he passed away and so im looking for either the same features as his or something similar.

Jean-Pierre De Vent huge sound. I’ve heard the Vintage One is good. Check out my recent videos. I have a Harrellson Trumpet that I’m in love with!

@@cameronsnyder1371 how's your Harrelson compared to this? Getting ready to pull the trigger on a Summit
