Mark F. is absolutely right. Harvey was disappointed with the product that Conn made.
He told me so himself. It wasn't a true copy of his beloved horn. If you were to
compare pictures of Harvey's Conn with the 2J/3J, the differences would become immediately apparent.

Harvey bought his Conn CC while he was studying with Mr. Bell at Julliard.
Mr. Bell called Abe Torchinsky in Philidelphia looking for a tuba for Harvey.
Mr. Torchinsky sold Harvey the horn for $125.00 even though Mr T. bought it from Fred Marzan for $175.00.
