ALEXANDER 1103, gold brass, detachable bell
£4,990.00
Alexander's 'Geyer model', the 1103, is the perfect
double horn for the player wanting the 'traditional Alex
sound' from an instrument that is quite a lot more free-
blowing than the ubiquitous '103'.
This lightly-used, lacquered gold brass horn's overall
condition can be described accurately as 'very nearly
immaculate'; its owner reports that it was fully serviced very
recently by Roy Cox Brass Repairs, UK.
The horn, serial number 28725, has a lovely 'ring' to the
middle and high registers, and plenty of rich
sonority lower down the range.
It is a really 'flexible' horn, with great fluency (mobility);
this is a definite advantage over the general character of the
other well known Alexander double, the 103, which
sometimes seems to 'get stuck' in the middle register.
It is reasonably light in weight for a detachable-bell
horn: 2.47kg.
The comfort of the left-hand position is determined by the
laterally-adjustable thumb-plate on the 4th-valve linkage.
Included in the price is an excellent Marcus Bonna
detachable-bell case, and a silver plated Alexander 8M
mouthpiece.
