ALEXANDER Model 1103
£4,700.00
RESERVED
Alexander's 'Geyer model', the 1103, is the perfect
double horn for the player wanting the 'traditional Alex
sound' from an instrument that is more free-
blowing than the ubiquitous '103'.
Our current lacquered gold-brass horn's overall
condition can accurately be described as 'very good if not
totally immaculate'.
There are some absolutely miniscule 'dings' in
the bell flare, and a very small depression in the tubing that
emerges from the 4th valve (seen in photos 2 and 3).
It was recently serviced by Will Spencer, Bordon, UK.
The horn has an attractive 'ring' to the middle and high
registers, plus a rich sonority lower down the range.
It is very easy to move around flexibly on this instrument,
whereas some other Alexanders (e.g. many 103s) seem to
'get stuck' in the middle register.
It is quite light in weight: 2.395kg, and furthermore the
comfort of the left-hand position is ensured by an adjustable
thumb-plate on the linkage to the 4th rotor.
In summary, this is a lovely, versatile horn, at a very
attractive price.
The photos can be viewed in greater detail
