This is a vintage (serial number 542822) Martin model 7600 Double French Horn. This instrument is in very good condition and plays very well. The valves move well with very good valve compression and the slides all move of course. As for the aesthetic condition of the instrument there are a few small dings and pings, some light scratching and etching throughout the instrument, and a few soldery connections. The minor imperfections are visible in the pictures, and none of it affects the playability of the horn. The engraving on the bell reads “MARTIN/ U.S.A". This instrument has been professionally cleaned in our shop and repaired to full playability. This horn is not lacquered; therefore fingerprints should be wiped off after use if the player wishes for the horn to stay as shiny as it is now; if they are not wiped off then the horn will develop a lovely patina. This instrument comes with a somewhat worn hardshell case which is missing one latch but is still fully functional, and a mouthpiece in good condition.How the horn plays: Full, round sound. The tone is smooth and clear. The horn is capable of being edgy or mellow depending on the desired effect. The Bb side timbre is brighter than the F side. The horn is responsive and resonant. The horn has a good high and low register that speak well. The horn has a good dynamic range.All horns are located at Silver & Brass Music Shop710 N. Curry St. Carson City, NV89703(775) 301-6289
