Would you recommend the horn? Yes |
Price you paid?: $330.00
| Rating: 9
Pros:
Nice looking, free blowing, very responsive
Cons:
water keys don't evacuate as easily as they should.
Bought this horn used, and I've been VERY pleased. I'm rating it a 9 instead of a 10 because it seems to have an issue completely emptying the water key (amado). I've never had that issue with my Bach or other horns. I bought this as a backup/practice horn, and I love it. I'm not giving up my Strad, but this horn plays extremely well. Much better than I expected for an intermediate. The rating reflects that "intermediate" status. Compared to a Strad, I might have to bump it down to a 7.5 or so.
