early 1970's style Conn Helleberg (large) mouthpiece

[bloke]

This was before the "120" designation, but closer to the modern "120" model OTHER THAN the rim (on this one) being VERY flat.

(If my memory is correct, fifty years ago this one was just called "Helleberg", and the 7B was called "Helleberg 7B" and marked as such.)

It was originally yellow (not orange) gold with a silver-plated shank. The contact portion of the rim is currently worn down to silver..

I'll carefully polish it and get it silver plated if anyone is interested @$90 + $6 priority postage insured (just about the same price as a new silver 120).

Otherwise, I'll stick it in the sock drawer.

There are four pencil-point "dits" in the shank (above insertion point) that are too deep to buff away. If these would really upset someone, I suppose I'd be willing to float silver solder into them...(??)

I'm also willing to send "after" pics prior to payment (but I would appreciate a reasonable commitment, prior to cleaning it up and re-plating it).
If I'M personally disappointed in the results, I'll warn off a committed buyer prior to accepting funds.

If an interested buyer HAPPENS to have a nice pair of King tuning bits (as a way to lower the price of this mouthpiece), I'd be interested in those...
...They would need to be the two DIFFERENT King bits and without damage (as King bits - once damaged - LEAK).

Dear interested party,
I'll let you know when it's been refinished.
