Customized Adams E1 w/ Sterling Leadpipe

[spkissane]

SOLD

Hi all, I've decided to rehome my custom Adams E1 to make some room in my house and my wallet. Thought it would be my "forever" horn, but I have found something that ultimately works better for me, and I can't let sentimentality get in the way.

Specs:
Make: Adams
Model: E1
Bell Material: Gold Brass
Gauge: 0.6mm
Adjustable Gap Receiver: Yes
Leadpipe: Sterling Silver
Finish: Brushed Lacquer

The horn is from the last in-person ITEC (2018 or 2019?) in Iowa. Some things I've added: Light Mead Springs, HBC heavy 4th valve cap, and upgraded Adams finger buttons with purple inlays. I'll include all the original parts as well. The valves and slides are still 100 percent. There are a few blemishes, as this has been my daily driver for a few years now and it's gotten a lot of use, hopefully the photos I provide show it well enough. Includes the Marcus Bonna case with backpack straps. It's a gorgeous, unique horn that plays great, and I'm hoping someone will love it as much as I have over the past few years.

Asking $6,500

Hi Sean,

What have you settled on, if I may ask? Recall you had a Wilson and Geneva before the E1, so I got curious (tried to search your older posts for clues but had no luck )

I've been spending a lot of time with the Shires Custom Solo ever since I brought it back from Midwest, and I just really love it.
