Conn 44H, SN 289503 — Vocabell Trombone made in 1933. This rare model from the early Elkhart era features Conn’s innovative rimless Vocabell design, produced between 1932 and 1951 to enhance resonance and tonal projection. With its small bore construction, this instrument is ideally suited for lead jazz, Dixieland, or traditional ensemble playing where clarity and articulation matter most.
Remarkably well-preserved, this example shows no major dents, damage, or structural repairs. The lacquer has aged naturally but remains consistent, and the slide is in exceptional condition with straight tubes and excellent alignment—responsive, tension-free, and ready to play without service.
A great opportunity for both collectors and working jazz musicians, this early 44H offers vintage craftsmanship and authentic 1930s sound. Whether you're building a vintage collection or looking for a historically voiced horn for performance, this one delivers. Includes the original Conn hard case.
