Yamaha Professional French Horn YHR-668II
Yamaha professional horns feature hand-lapped rotary valves and slides for an airtight, smooth action. Quick responsive motion is provided by the articulated key levers. The hammered and annealed bell responds consistently in all ranges and the cyclical bore design produces consistent airflow throughout the horn. A well-placed water key proves efficient water drainage. Yamaha professional horns are known for accurate intonation and comfortable, quick response. This horn is a Kruspe style horn with large throat for full sound with little resistance. Great for the professional player.
Features:
• Key: F/Bb
• Kruspe style wrap: A horn with a Kruspe style wrap has the 4th valve on the near end of the other valve. The Kruspe wrap is the basis of modern large bell horns
• Bore: .472"
• Bell: 12-1/8" yellow brass bell produces a slightly bright and intense sound
• Bell throat: Large
• Valves: Four solid rotary valves
• Water key: The water key on a horn expedites water drainage
• Clear epoxy lacquer: Microscopic, electrically-charged particles of lacquer are attracted to and deposited evenly on the surface of the instrument carrying the opposite charge. This produces an exceptionally thin, uniform coating that can be oven-hardened for maximum durability without compromising the instrument's sound. The sound produced is a solid, somewhat harder sound than silver-plated finishes
• Gold brass leadpipe: Extremely resistant to wear and corrosion
