The Yamaha YHR567 Intermediate Double French Horn is an excellent instrument for the advancing player. The Yamaha 567 features a Geyer wrap with an adjustable thumb lever for playing comfort and a tapered leadpipe for better response and intonation. Though priced as an intermediate model, it is used by some professional players in top orchestras. Its easy response and sure note centering make it ideal for students-while the colorful tone and precise intonation make it attractive to pros. The 567 Double Horn is available in lacquer with a fixed bell (YHR-567) or detachable bell (YHR-567D).

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.

Adjustable 4th rotor thumb lever: The 4th rotor thumb lever can be adjusted to fit any hand size from small student hands to large adult hands.

Easy response and sure note centering: The ease with which this horn may be played makes it ideal for students.

Excellent sound in all registers: The combination of the secure high register, strong projection, and quick attack of the Bb horn with the rich, warm timbre of the F horn make the double horn ideal for most playing situations.

- YAC HR32C4 Horn mouthpiece; larger rim diameter and first cup volume than 30C4 for clear tone, flexible response in all registers
