The King Silver Sonic cornet was King's top of the line professional cornet and widely considered the best cornet ever made! Serial number is 316331 dating to around 1951 This super vintage cornet is ready to be an everyday player. You'll fall in love with the tone and response of this classic instrument. The valves have excellent plating and compression and are fast and smooth like only an HN White King can be. I've had the chance to restore and play Master Model and Silver sonics from 1915 till the 1970's and they all play great. The intonation is outstanding and the tone and response is the best you'll play. The basic design changed very little. That being said, the ones from the H. N. White Company days seem to play the best. When the family still owned the company and their name was on each instrument, uncompromising quality was the most important value. This was stressed by Edna White personally to each and every employee. I've heard this personally from a family member and also from a former employee, and experienced it first hand having played H. N. White King instruments since 1963! THE VALVES ARE FAST AND SMOOTH WITH EXCELLENT PLATING AND COMPRESSION PUT THAT TRUMPET DOWN!!! REDISCOVER THE GREAT WARM CORNET SOUND ONLY A TRUE H N WHITE KING SILVER SONIC CORNET CAN GIVE!!! This is not your typical used instrument. It has been taken apart, dents removed, carefully reassembled, highly polished and a new baked epoxy lacquer finish applied. It will look and play GREAT! The restoration was done by a respected local shop with over 40 years experience in woodwind and brass instrument restorations and repairs. Some of their employees worked at the H.N. White and King factories in Cleveland and Eastlake, Ohio. The craftsman who does their polishing started at the H. N. White factory in Cleveland in 1957! He may have polished this one when it was new as well! I have personally used this company for over 10 years for my band members and myself. I had this shop overhaul and silver plate my “baby” – a 1971 Besson euphonium and for me that’s like trusting someone to operate on your kid. (I’ve had the horn longer than my kids!) It really looks great and actually plays better than when I bought it new in college. AN OUTSTANDING CLASSIC PROFESSIONAL CORNET!! A REAL PLAYER – A GREAT COLLECTOR’S ITEM! DON’T LET THIS ONE GET AWAY!!! A special thanks to Chris and the hnwhite web site for making catalog pages and information available to eBay sellers. Please visit the outstanding hnwhite web site for excellent information on the HN White Company, makers of King brand instruments from 1873-1965, King band instruments and the artists that made them famous!

If I wouldn’t have it in my house, I won’t send it to yours! I’ve just collected too many instruments and other "horn stuff", between the community band that I direct (plus 3 others I play in – yes, I’m a little crazy!) and 2 kids that played in band in school.
