Further details: 

 

A good  'Intermediate' horn, it plays very well

 

over the whole range; however, due to a few

 

inconsequential dings and lacquer wear, it is rather

 

'cosmetically challenged'. 

 

Its 4th valve lever,  measuring only 10cm from the finger

hook to the 4th valve lever, is rather more

conveniently placed for a young player's left hand than that

on many cheaper horns, e.g. an Anborg

compensator.

 

Supplied with a silver plated mouthpiece, ultrasonically

 

cleaned, it has a clear and sonorous tone, and

 

will probably take a young player up to Grade 8.
