PAXMAN'S 'Series 2' horns always amaze me!

 

  Our current example, a rarely-available single Bb/A, made

 

of unlacquered yellow-brass, is no exception. Although

 

classed as an Intermediate instrument, this 'Series 2' horn is

 

fully capable of professional use, which is why it is listed in

 

both 'Professional' and 'Intermediate' categories.

 

Its bell throat is Medium-Large, so it is approximately

 

equivalent, but not identical to the Paxman Europa in the size

 

of the throat.  It plays with a fluent and even response

 

over the  whole range, with a clear, ringing sound, plus

 

Paxman's legendary clarity in the high register.

 

 

 

Rather light in weight (1.95 kg), it is in good cosmetic and

 

mechanical shape, with very good rotor compression.

 

The water spots on the bell can be removed by metal polish and

 

some hard work!

 

 

 

The photos can be viewed in greater detail

by opening and saving them.
