Pro Horn player/ teacher is selling a GORGEOUS Holton Farkas double French Horn! This is a model H177 in nickel silver, and it has a medium-sized bell bore. This model is similar to the H179, but the medium bell allows for a more direct sound that can get more edge to the sound, quicker and easier. Typically, the H177 has a slightly brighter sound than the H179, however, this one has a nice warm tone quality with nice clear edges to attacks. This horn was manufactured in 2000. It has been taken care of by one owner. It works and plays perfectly! It does not need any work. It is clean and ready to play. The valves and slides all move with ease. The valves are super-springy. The rotors are lined up, and the horn has new strings and bumpers on the valves. The horn is in tip-top, playing condition. There are a few tiny dings on the horn if you examine it closely, but nothing to worry about. There is NO WEAR or worn areas to the beautiful, shiny lacquer.
This Holton H177 is a fine example of a Farkas horn. It has a classic, warm, rounded sound and the notes speak clearly. Centering pitches is a breeze, so it is easy to hit the right notes. :) Scales are good, especially up into the high note range. I played on this same model Holton all the way through college as a Horn Performance major. So it's a fantastic instrument to progress with -- the capabilities are endless! This H177 will last a lifetime, and it would be perfect for that advancing, aspiring Horn player in your life. This wonderful Holton comes with the hardshell Holton case and a Holton Farkas MC mouthpiece that has been sterilized. Check out the AMAZING pictures of this horn! I offer a *** 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE *** with the sale of this Holton. It's a great player, and you will LOVE it!**** Only ships to U.S.! Flat shipping charge of $65. AK, HI, and PR must pay additional shipping charge of $100. ****Please feel free to ask any questions and thanks for looking!
