B & S 'SONORA' compensating double
£475.00
SOLD
B & S is the maker of Meister Hans Hoyer horns,
so, in effect this 'Sonora' model is a Hoyer.
Although a little on the heavy side, (2.39 kg) its build-
quality is very good, as is its valve compression.
There is minimal lacquer wear, in a few places, and
several very small but non-invasive dings.
Its hard case is 'much used but absolutely OK',
however, a good lightweight case can be supplied
for an extra £60.
This attractive horn has a medium-dark but ringing
tone quality, and an impressively even response over
the whole range. Its F side is quite free-blowing
compared to some 'stuffier' horns. It feels rather like
a Knopf or Kruspe!
Generally, a good, inexpensive 4-valve compensator
that will take an 'improving' player up to Grade 8 and
even diploma standard.
Its 4th valve can be configured for F/Bb or Bb/F.
The photos can be viewed in greater detail
by opening and saving them.
