YAMAHA YHR322II Bb Single French Horn, Clear Lacquer
- Catalog #: YHR322II
- SPECIAL ORDER
- CLEAR LACQUER
Lightweight and less complicated than double horns, ideal for new horn students.
The 322II is a single horn in Bb with a beautiful clear tone and well centered notes. It provides security and comfort in the mid-to-upper range without sacrificing any sound in the lower register. The comfortable weight and balance increase endurance in younger players, while accurate intonation and immediate response enhance technique. An A/plus stop valve is included to eliminate the need to transpose during stopped passages. To give the sound of an open F horn to some low range notes, an optional F natural slide is available.
Leadpipe taper
The taper of the leadpipe improves response and intonation throughout the instrument.
Wrap
The wrap of this model allows for a more comfortable hand position and smoother air flow.
Nickel silver inner and outer slides
The use of nickel silver inner and outer slides ensures better fit and less chance of corrosion because nickel-silver is harder and more durable than brass.
Tapered valves
Tapered valves wear for a long time without air leakage.
