£2,350.00
Maker: ALEXANDER
Model: 97
Type: Bb/A+/F extension: the F extension is activated by
a 5th rotor, operated by the little finger, 'Sansone'-style.
Bell throat profile: medium
Alloy: unlacquered yellow brass, gold brass leadpipe.
Bell flare: detachable, very light in weight: 340gm.
Valve compression: very good; all the rotors were nickel
plated 2 or 3 years ago.
Visual / cosmetic condition: mostly good, with some slight
cosmetic blemishes (small dings and a few scratches in the
flare) indicating that it is a used horn.
Case: used Paxman black fibreglass 'suitcase'.
Further details: an excellent example of this
versatile model, made in the 1970s, very lightweight
(2.34 kg), with a clear, ringing, resonant sound.
The instrument is delightfully fluent in all registers,
and is as 'easy to play' as a horn can ever be!
It has 2 'JoyKeys' and an adjustable duck's foot /
flipper.
The photos can be viewed in greater detail
