Custom-Made Bb Single French Horn, Traditional Wrap with Case and Mouthpiece
Silver and Brass Music Shop is a brick-and-mortar brass instrument restoration and repair shop located in Carson City, NV. This is a custom Bb single horn. This horn is one of a series of horns that our shop built to experiment with different possible wraps and layouts for 4-valve single Bb horns. This particular horn was designed to be more traditional in style. The horn has a fairly standard wrap with the exception of the 1st valve slide, which has been opened up for better airflow. This horn has a compact and focused sound, definitely lending itself well to traditional horn playing, such as horn concertos and chamber orchestra work. The trigger has a very, very short throw-so short that you would almost swear that you hadn’t moved it at all. This takes some getting used to, but once you become accustomed to it it is nice that the throw is so short. If you would like to know what this horn sounds like then on YouTube. Please set your expectations accordingly. And here is a link to all of the videos on our channel. This horn was built using a vintage F. Olds & Son valve cluster, with a Conn leadpipe and a vintage bell made by Buescher. Being that almost all of the parts are vintage, there are some imperfections throughout the horn. There are a few small dings and pings, and there is some scratching and etching throughout the horn. The valves move well with very good compression and the slides all move of course. The minor flaws are visible in the pictures, and none of them affect the playability of the horn. This horn is not lacquered; therefore the horn will develop a lovely “raw brass” patina over time. All horns are located at Silver & Brass Music Shop. This item is in the category “Musical Instruments & Gear\Brass\French Horns”.
