The 'Sonora', a German-made F/Bb compensating horn

 

by 'B & S', was made in the Hoyer workshop, so it is

 

essentially  a Hans Hoyer horn, mass-produced in

 

order to keep the price down.

 

 It comes with a Dennis Wick # 5 mouthpiece and a good,

solid hard case.  Its 4th valve lever is rather more

conveniently placed for a small young player's left hand

than that of e.g. an Anborg compensator.

 

There is some evidence of repairs,  but the horn plays very

well despite its looks.  It falls into a 'midway category'

between 'Beginner' and 'Intermediate'.
