Here is an extremely rare Martin Handcraft Committee made in 1940. The serial number is 137392. It is a #2 size or medium bore horn. At some point in the last 76 years, it has been relacquered and I suspect a few dings were probably removed. All the slides work properly. I think the valves were rebuilt as they don\'t seem to have much wear and are tight and have a fast action. I think the valve springs are probably new as they are a bit strong for my taste, but I won\'t compress them as you may like them this way. Easy to adjust. The tone is bright and clear and this horn slots particularly well for a Committee. Committees can sometimes be too squirrelly on this account. This is a good one. It has very accurate pitch in all registers I can play. I just changed mouthpieces from a schilke 15a4a to a period Bach 7c. The horn now has that great dark rich smoky jazz sound. It would seem that you can just about dial in your kind of sound by a simple mouthpiece change. I am selling this one, because I have two. The other was in pretty rough condition when I got it, but I sent it to Charlie Melk who did his magic and now that horn is as new. If you wanted to spend a few dollars on this one, you could have an even better horn. This is a sale. Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
