Further details: a lovely vintage Kruspe dating from the

The horn has an impressive 'professional' history, having been
played several years ago by Robert Cook, former
Principal, BBC N.O.W. and Scottish Chamber Orchestra.
The horn plays beautifully over the whole range, with a
well-slotted/centred high register in particular.
The photos can be viewed in greater detail
