Built by C.G. Conn, one of the great names in American brass, the Director was designed to put a dependable, responsive trombone into the hands of developing players without sacrificing the solid construction and traditional playing characteristics Conn was known for. This example is in Very Good condition and has exactly the kind of straightforward, workmanlike character that has made the Director a favorite in school bands and among beginning and intermediate players for decades.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe Director family spans several versions and production periods, so the exact bore depends on the particular model and year. Common 14H\/18H Director examples are found with .484\" or .500\" bores, depending on the era, with later versions generally using the .500\" configuration. Conn designed these horns primarily for students, emphasizing comfortable response, good projection, durability, and the ability to stand up to the daily demands of school-band use. That makes the Director equally interesting today as a first trombone, practice horn, community-band instrument, or dependable backup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eConn's name carries considerable weight in the brass world, with legendary players such as jazz greats\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eJ.J. Johnson and Tommy Dorsey associated with Conn instruments during the company's long history. While the Director was designed as a student instrument rather than a professional model, it benefits from the same American manufacturing tradition that made Conn one of the most important names in brass. This Conn Director is in Very Good condition and represents a nice opportunity to own a piece of classic American band-instrument history without spending professional-horn money. Whether you're looking for a first trombone, a reliable school-band instrument, or simply appreciate vintage American brass, this is a horn worth taking a close look at. Clean Directors are getting harder to find in this kind of condition, so if you've been searching for a solid Conn student trombone, don't let this one sit on the sidelines—give it a closer look and put it back into the hands of a player.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Used","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39921543675947,"sku":"MM15012","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/mountainmusicsite.com\/products\/conn-director-trombone-w-mouthpiece-case","provider":"Mountain Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
