The 6D now is often regarded as a more intermediate student instrument but in this period was regarding in equally standing to the pro 8D but a medium yellow brass horn. The lacquer is in adequate condition with a fair amount of wear but nothing unexpected for it’s age. The leadpipe had been replaced which has improved the playing greatly. The valves are fine but as you might expect with an instrument of this age they require regular use of thicker oil to maintain good compression. The horn plays very nicely and is an excellent quality instrument and would suit someone on a tighter budget with out sacrificing quality.
