I played the CC that was listed on E**** and it's a great horn that is in excellent condition considering it belonged to a High School. I'm not sure what they were doing with a CC though. The horn is built almost identically to an Alexander, with the wide 4th valve slide and the braces appear to be the same. This one has a very nice sound, good pitch and response and would be an excellent quintet horn. Very free blowing and has a strong high register and an open low register. Well worth the investment. This one has a couple of loose braces and needs some minor dent work to make it pristine.
