Description

Vintage King 1159 for $1000 OBO. Serial #462717. Great horn for a student or adult amateur. I haven't played it since upgrading in college 5 years ago and would love for someone to actually use it. Unlaquered, with a nice full sound.
 
Could use a cleaning and new bumpers/strings, but valves are still very responsive for its age and lack of recent use. No dents to speak of. Some scratches, pitting, and tarnishing consistent with age and no recent cleaning.
 
Purchased ~2017, record of original listing here: https://www.musical-instruments-for-all.com/320398/french-horns/king-1159-kruspe-wrap-double-french-horn-in-f-bb-w-case-mouthpiece.html
 
Would prefer local pickup in central NJ, USA, but can consider shipping to continental US at buyer's expense. Hardshell case can be included.
