The second one and the parts one were the same kind of King Eb I used to build my 5 valve Eb. Great sound on those! Maybe I should start manufacturing my own model of Eb.... :huh:

There's another up for parts as well.
Anyone know what the bore of this model is?
Some old Yorks, Martins, and perhaps a King rotary valved CC

If it is indeed the same model as the one I used for my Eb project, I believe it was around 0.620.

I almost bid on the first one but decided against. if you look carefully at the pictures there are broken/missing braces between the main bugle and the third valve tubing. Nearby there is a large dent. The listing mentions one of the valves is stuck, I am hypothesizing that it took a bad fall and that third valve needs some work.
As amateur as they come...I know just enough to be dangerous.
