A superb,very lightweight free-blowing horn, hand made
in Germany by skilled crafts-persons using top quality materials and
parts made in the Finke workshop. I have visited Vlotho and
observed their superb workmanship for myself.
The design and general architecture of this
Finke model is that of an original CARL GEYER
double horn, with its wide hoop and small
diameter change valve.
Further details: a really wonderful and versatile
hand-made double horn. The build quality and
craftsmanship are superb.
Every pitch is exactly where you expect it to be,
the rotor action is smooth, light and positive,
and the potential range of tonal colours is
awesome.
This is a lightly used 2nd hand horn in excellent
condition.
Case: 'Fusion' very well-padded gig bag with back pack
straps.
A totally beautiful horn in every way.
