As a favor to Dave Gannet (the incredible jazz tubist - check out "Tubas from Hell" cd) I am posting this instrument for sale. 1923 Conn Helicon in excellent condition - it plays great. This is a great horn for jazz and BBb helicons (like a compact Sousaphone with fixed angled bell) are very hard to find. The asking price is $2,000. He is working on the Mississippi Queen riverboat but you may leave a message on his cell phone at (256)505-1887. Tell him a good time to call you back. If you cannot reach him email me and I will try to get you in touch.
