This Yamaha French horn has been beautifully cared for and gently used.  It would be very difficult to find another pre-owned French horn in such excellent condition. This horn is suitable for learners and professionals. This French horn comes with the original Yamaha matching hard case, Yamaha manual and cleaning cloth. We bought this horn new.  It is about 3.5 years old and has not been used for the last year and a half.  However, the maintenance on the valves and slides has been kept up and it has been serviced professionally.  This is an important consideration as French horns that are not maintained regularly could require expensive professional attention. The case is in excellent condition with minor scuffs on the outside of the case from normal use. The horn does have tiny dings on the bell which were too small to show up in the photos.  We have added a number of better quality photos to help potential purchasers see that the horn is in excellent (near new) condition.  The horn has many adjusting options to suit any size player & to make playing it easier & more comfortable.

Adjustable 4th rotor thumb lever The 4th rotor thumb lever can be adjusted to fit any hand size from small student hands to large adult hands.   Easy response and sure note centering The ease with which this horn may be played makes it ideal for students. Excellent sound in all registers The combination of the secure high register, strong projection, and quick attack of the Bb horn with the rich, warm timbre of the F horn make the double horn ideal for most playing situations.   SHIPPING: We will carefully package and ship this horn to anywhere in the USA or Canada for the rates noted below.  If a buyer wishes we will also consider shipments to Great Britian or Australia via Fed Ex or UPS.  We will not ship to Nigeria.     Payment/Shipping (Anywhere in the USA or Canada): Full payment must be made before the horn is shipped.   PayPal is the only approved payment method as it protects both the buyer and the seller.
