Frank, an accomplished trombonist, started his business by selling his own proprietary slide oil, which then evolved into the production of brass instruments. After moving his factory to Elkhorn, Wisconsin, in 1917, Frank Holton & Company continued to produce high-end brass instruments, and then later expanded into student-level horns. Upon retiring, Frank sold the company to employee William Kull. The company was later acquired by Leblanc, then by Conn-Selmer in 2004, which continues Holton's tradition of creating outstanding brass instruments and accessories.Holton H378 French Horn Features: Step-up Farkas-style F/Bb French horn for intermediate players Yellow brass leadpipe offers a free-blowing feel .468-inch bore delivers that elusive centered tone Kruspe wrap delivers an open, dark sound with a rock-solid tonal center Tapered, hand-lapped brass valve rotors ensure a snug fit and tight seal between the valves and casing Noiseless string action and stainless steel springs 12-inch, medium-throat yellow brass bell enables you to play pianissimo staccato notes cleanly and evenly Lacquered brass finish brings a delicate warmth to your overall sound and looks amazing Includes a case and a Holton-Farkas MC mouthpiece SpecificationDetail Type Double Horn Level Professional Key F/Bb Finish Clear Lacquer Body Material Yellow Brass Bell Material Yellow Brass Bell Size 12.25" Bell Type Fixed Bore .468" Wrap Kruspe Throat Medium Valves 4 Tapered Rotary Valves, Tapered Bearings, String Linkage System Leadpipe Material Yellow Brass Mouthpiece Holton-Farkas MC Additional Features Nickel Silver Slides Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
