KRUSPE, nickel silver
£1,500.00
Maker: ED. KRUSPE
Type: F/Bb compensating double
Bell throat profile: Medium-Large
Alloy: unlacquered nickel silver
Bell flare: detachable
Valve compression: good
Visual/cosmetic condition: generally very good.
Further details: a lovely, lightweight horn dating from the
era when all high quality brass instruments were hand-
made by a single 'master craftsman'.
A very good player with a clear, well-defined high
register, slightly more free-blowing on the F side than
on many compensators, meaning that it can be used on
a low part almost as effectively as a full double.
Although a 'memorable piece of horn history', it is a
practical, usable, characterful example, with a lot of
life left in it.
Its 'sub-£2K' price qualifies it for a parallel
listing in the 'Intermediate' category, although it is
a professional-quality horn.
