What Conn said in 1936:
The 32K Lightweight Sousaphone is the newest thing in sousaphones and was designed for a light-weight sousaphone
possessing the same general design and quality of performance as the 38K Sousaphone Grand. That this model fulfills this
demand is fully evident because it has jumped into immediate popularity. Magnificent tone easily produced, combined with
lighter weight than found in the average BBb sousaphone, makes this instrument ideal for professionals with long and tiring
engagements... Although of the same bore through the valves and major portion of the tubing as the famous Conn Sousaphone
Grand 38K, our engineers have ingeniously designed the instrument in respect to rings, bracings, ferrules and valve caps so as
to reduce the weight by more than two pounds, making it weigh about 26 pounds. The bell is 24 inches in diameter.
