This is a Yamaha single French Horn model YHR-314. Serial #002173. It has just been professionally checked over. There were a few dents in the bell and bell tail that have been removed, so there might still be a little sign where the repair was. There are a few other small dents that were not removed. All rotors and slides move freely as they should. Overall, the horn is in great shape and shows very little lacquer wear. I have tried to include pictures of any damage there is or was. This horn also comes with original hard carrying case, oil and grease, and a copy of the owners manual from Yamaha. It does not have the original mouthpiece. This is a great playing horn and would be great for a young student or someone looking to take up a new instrument. This horn will ship only within the United States of America. No international shipping. Horn will be insured for the final selling price of the auction. Here are the specs listed from Yamaha: Lightweight and less complicated than double horns, ideal for new horn students. Lightweight and less complicated than double horns, ideal for new horn students. Features 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. Lightweight and least complicated horn to play The single F horn is preferred for beginners because of its weight and simple configuration.
