LIDL traditional model
£300.00
SOLD
Maker: JOSEF LIDL
Brno, Czech Republic
Type: Full double F/Bb
Bell throat profile: medium
Alloy: yellow brass
Weight: 2.9 kg
Visual / cosmetic condition: reasonable, although
slightly scruffy in several places; some small
blemishes comprise a few ‘non-invasive’ dings
having no effect on the playing, and some lacquer
loss leading to tarnish of the exposed brass; of course,
these areas can be restored to a shine with brass polish.
Mouthpiece: Paxman 3C in fair condition.
Case: almost new 'Champion', lightweight, with backpack
straps.
Further details:
always under-rated on account of its rather heavy
weight, this well-known 'beginner to intermediate’ model of
full double horn has been made famous by the very
enjoyable and entertaining book ‘I Found my Horn’ by
Jasper Rees.
I played this very model (not this actual horn) when I
was 4th horn in the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra,
since it gave a much more powerful and ‘projecting’
low and middle register response than did my default
horn at that time, an Alexander 104.
Our current horn is a good, inexpensive example
with a fluent response and an even sound over the
whole range.
